We value sustainable living as something more than just an eco-savvy trend. It's a
lifestyle that residents share in almost every aspect of their daily
routine. And it's our joy, as environmentally responsible citizens, to help you
implement sustainable efforts with ease, right at home.
Manor's eco-conscious design doesn't focus on frills, bells and whistles for the
sake of vanity. Instead, we provide simple, intelligent solutions to reducing
your carbon footprint that are aesthetically pleasing and, most importantly,
functional.
- Xeriscaping, a fancy way to say responsible landscaping, was implemented to
reduce or eliminate the need for supplemental irrigation. This spreads out water
resources for various uses, using less water, and lowering water bills.
- Our community garden represents the ultimate form of sustainability we offer,
giving you access to your own local ingredients to cook up something tasty.
- Recycling and trash chutes are located on every floor—a convenient way to be
responsible.
- ENERGY STAR appliances in every unit are efficient and responsible.
- Cellulose insulation provides energy-efficient, thermal performance (not to
mention, reduced sound from unit to unit).
- The Manor construction process employed "lean manufacturing principles" to
dramatically reduce waste. By assembling large, pre-cut framing components off site
and transporting them in pre-arranged packages, the construction team reduced waste
from field cutting and lack of planning for unused pieces.
