ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
New condo buildings can look flawless on the surface, but that polish sometimes hides problems that only become obvious once people have already moved in. In this episode, Joseph Cosentino, managing director and head of mechanical engineering at FSI Architecture, explains forensic audits, the deep investigations boards call for when something isn't adding up. Cosentino explains how his team pieces together what really happened during construction, comparing design documents and offering plans against what they find walking from the building's mechanical rooms to rooftops. He shares what tends to get overlooked, how these investigations connect to litigation against developers, and what timelines and costs actually look like. Habitat's Carol Ott conducts the interview.
