The Reserve at View 78
Project Summary
The Reserve development will be a new construction multifamily housing project with 8 apartment buildings and a central amenity building with an on-site swimming pool.
The development aims to minimize the site’s operational energy costs and deliver a low energy site while meeting the project’s budget.
The team utilized building energy modeling to quantify and weigh the site’s design choices to reduce energy use, evaluate envelope enhancements, domestic heat pump water heaters, balanced ventilation, and further efficiency measures. The analysis assessed the impacts of thermal bridging between building façade elements, incorporating leading research on heat transfer to better anticipate heating and cooling needs.
