Third + Bond is anticipating LEED-GOLD and Energy Star designations – the first mid-rise luxury residential building in Brooklyn to reach this commitment to environmentally sustainable design.
Energy Star Homes are reported to save as much as 30% in energy usage compared to a typical home. Energy Star is an international standard for energy efficient products which was first launched by the U.S. Department of Environmental Protection.
LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. It is the building industry’s preeminent voluntary "green building" standard and is overseen by a national non-profit, the U.S. Green Building Council.
