OUR CONVERSION ADVANTAGE

True ESG

By restoring value hidden in plain sight and providing “whole life” cost savings for our customers, Live/Work Lofts support vibrant, thriving communities.

  • Our buildings generate up to 30 years of imputed energy savings when compared with comparable new construction

  • By keeping most of what we start with our projects generate up to 80% reduced construction waste when compared with comparable new construction

  • Fewer materials and fewer trades means reduced transportation cost and fossil fuel usage during construction

  • Working from home keeps cars off the road at peak times, reducing single occupant vehicle trips and fossil fuel usage

  • Lower vacancies and higher functionality requires fewer buildings everywhere - Fewer buildings means more land available for green-space

  • Empowers customers to conserve energy and control cost

  • Adaptive reuse avoids clear cutting associated with ground-up development and preserves mature carbon sinks

  • Reduces plastic bottle waste and offers a healthy choice for our customer

  • Reduced energy usage and residual heat generation

  • Healthier buildings for residents, workers and their guests

  • Commitment to local sustainability and CO2 capture

  • Conserving energy while limiting ambient sound transmission

  • Transfer excess surface parking into usable greenspace

*According to Preservation Green Lab, it takes an average of 30 years for a new LEED Gold certified building to realize the imputed energy savings we achieve day 1 by recycling an existing asset.

Stronger Communities
