The community implemented a variety of energy reduction measures to achieve this, including an onsite solar array and offsite solar energy farms. When compared with similar buildings, the community has reduced its total energy draw by 25%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen we embarked on the journey to create the world\u2019s greenest senior living building, our goal was to set a new standard for what is possible, bringing an equal commitment to sustainable buildings and exceptional senior living,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcknightsseniorliving.com\/home\/news\/worlds-greenest-assisted-living-community-named-among-nations-top-10-developments\/\">Aegis President Adam Clark shares with McKnight\u2019s Senior Living.<\/a> \u201cWe made this dream a reality and hope to be a model for others serving our rapidly growing aging population.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of recognition (and well-deserved recognition at that), Aegis Living Lake Union is one of ten developments that\u2019s been selected for the 2023 Urban Land Institute Americas Awards Of Excellence \u2014 and it\u2019s the only senior living community to be recognized. It\u2019s also the first assisted living community to meet the global green building standards set by the International Living Future Institute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Aegis Living<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aegisliving.com\/\">Aegis Living<\/a> is a leader in senior assisted living and memory care.
