\"husdon<\/a>For those familiar with the industry, Yardi<\/a> client Related<\/a> calls to mind images of grandeur: a wildly successful company that constructs towers that tickle the clouds of America\u2019s most desirable cities. Related has come to embody the upper echelon of commercial and residential development. Without missing a beat, the company is also promoting health as a notable characteristic of the brand.<\/p>\n

Related\u2019s nationwide, smoke-free housing policy turned heads this summer. The nation\u2019s largest privately held real estate development firm raised the bar by converting every property in its portfolio into a clean air haven. The conversion, estimated for completion within a few years, is the first of its kind in the US.<\/p>\n

The development of the Hudson Yards megaproject adds another gem to the crown of Related\u2019s healthy living plan. The site in the New West Side, as the neighborhood is being called, demonstrates grand scale gentrification of Manhattan\u2019s water-front. Ultra-luxury goods and services will abound around the complex. Upscale shopping, world-class dining, and housing that offers breathtaking views of the city are only the basics of the project. Related\u2019s sustainability efforts set this development apart from others of its kind.<\/p>\n

\"hudson<\/a>The towers will boast an energy efficient envelope for optimal climate control. Their ventilation design promotes natural air circulation. Hybrid heat pumps and fan coils offer cost-effective heating and cooling systems that put less stress on the power grid than their traditional counterparts.\u00a0 Interior spaces that cater to natural sunlight will boost the moods of residents while on-site power ensures that occupants can enjoy business as usual even in the midst of natural disasters. Energy efficient fixtures, appliances, and finishes top off the design plans.<\/p>\n

Related strives to provide eco-friendly and health-conscious facilities without sacrificing comfort. For more on the residential smoking ban and the Hudson Yard\u2019s development, see\u00a0Healthy Amenities: How to Walk the ‘Green’ Walk<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
