BMW of Manhattan
Successful collaboration leads to reimagined customer spaces that resonate. BMW of Manhattan, in one of New York City's busiest retail corridors, looked to renovate their main showroom, MINI showroom, atrium, pre-owned sales area, second-floor customer lounge, service drive, and customer waiting areas. The design team on the renovation reached out to Henderson Engineers based on our experience delivering exceptional acoustic engineering and technology problem-solving on previous projects. The renovation supported day-to-day dealership operations, including sales, service coordination, financing, parts, and the communications reliability needs of a high-volume urban environment.
Acoustics and technology were key considerations. Our team provided acoustics consulting to support a comfortable and effective customer environment, while our sister company, Henderson Building Solutions, completed a cellular study to identify coverage gaps and establish a performance baseline. Using the cellular report as the basis for technology recommendations, the project team was able to align planned improvements with the facility’s communications needs, supporting more reliable connectivity for connected systems and customer-facing operations. By addressing acoustical performance and technology needs early in the design process, Henderson Engineers helped create a showroom experience that supports both the BMW brand and the operational demands of a dense Manhattan location.
