Moving On Up To The North Side

7564I am in the process of looking at buying a new place! Here is some of the info. It is designed by the pretty well known SHoP Architects. The project is called “Garden Street Lofts“. Here are some snippets:

Located at the corner of 14th Street and Garden Street, Garden Street Lofts is the first high-rise residential building going for LEED certification as a sustainable building in the Hoboken, NJ area. The development consists of the renovation and conversion of a five-story 35,400 sq. ft. former coconut warehouse, originally constructed in 1911, to luxury residential condominium use.

In achieving sustainable design elements, Garden Street Lofts implements high-end HVAC systems which allow for fresh filtered air and a cleaner, healthy interior living environment. In addition to highly efficient mechanical systems, the residence’s overall low energy use is enabled by the large windows and open plan, reducing the amount of heating and cooling per individual unit.

Custom fabricated zinc panel system is a pre-weathered metal requiring no treatment such as painting or any other coatings. It absorbs and reflects light in distinctive ways giving off a different appearance at various times throughout the day. 

Seems pretty cool, right??
