Sheraton Damascus riverfront utilities upgrade is a specialized MEP project that modernizes the hotel’s cooling and services infrastructure while enhancing its urban setting along the waterway. The scheme organizes a new central energy plant with high-efficiency air-cooled chillers, pumps, and filtration units within a compact, low-rise enclosure, visually integrated by a sequence of triangular intake modules and clean white volumes. Exposed stainless-steel distribution headers run neatly along the embankment, expressing the technical character of the installation while remaining accessible for inspection and maintenance.
Adjacent green-roofed service pavilions house ancillary equipment and connect to the hotel through buried and elevated pipe bridges, ensuring redundancy and stable operation even under peak summer loads. Hydraulic design and control philosophy were carefully tuned to protect the river environment, avoid thermal pollution, and maintain safe access along the promenade walls. The project demonstrates how essential mechanical infrastructure can be inserted into a dense, historic urban fabric without compromising views to the landmark tower and nearby mosque.
Housari Corp led the integrated engineering, coordinating civil works, structural supports, mechanical systems, and corrosion-protected external piping to deliver a durable, efficient solution for long-term hotel operations.
