Denari’s HL23 to Purchase 100 Percent Green Power
The $22 million HL23 residential condo project at West 23rd Street and 10th Avenue, which rises above and cantilevers out over the High Line, will purchase 100 percent green power, according to a report that appeared yesterday on GlobeSt.com. Designed by Los Angeles-based Neil M. Denari Architects, the team also includes Thomas Juul-Hansen Architects, which designed the project’s interiors. YRG Sustainability Consultants of New York will assist the design team in pursuit of a LEED Gold rating from USGBC. GlobeSt.com also reports on a number of green design features at the 39,000-square-foot HL23, including reflective roofing, a target energy consumption reduction of 15 to 25 percent below code, construction waste management, and recycled-content building materials.
