NEW YORK CITY – The Visionaire, a multifamily property located in New York City, has received the LEED-Platinum certification. It is the only one on the East Coast to receive this rating and is one of the greenest residential projects in the United States. Located in Manhattan’s Battery Park City, the 35-story condominium tower features a high-efficiency air filtration system that conditions, filters and supplies fresh air to each home; a water treatment system that recycles water and provides make-up water for the HVAC cooling system tower; and building-integrated solar panels that harvest a portion of the building’s electric load. The complex was completed in 2008 and contains 247 homes. The project architect was SLCE, and the design architect was Pelli Clarke Pelli. The developers for the project were The Albanese Organization and Starwood Capital.
