| Energy efficiency was a key requirement of this project. The Carson Street building, a 69 unit, 69,000 s.f. assisted living apartment building, was constructed of precast plank and insulated concrete formed walls. At the time, it was the largest building in Pennsylvania built using this method. This type of construction provides exceptionally high insulation and sound qualities (STC values) for the building. Other measures such as high-efficiency water source heat pumps and boilers, low-e glazing, and low-VOC paints and adhesives were some of the items that contributed to this being a 'greener' project. |
| The on-site recycling of 2,000 tons of terra cotta from nonbearing partition walls as fill assisted in supporting Sota Construction's efforts to pursue green building techniques. |
