LEED-Certified Condos on an Historic Site

ReThink Development is bringing the first LEED-certified mixed use product to Hollywood: sustainable Cherokee Lofts that respect people, culture, and the environment.

Built on the lot formerly occupied by Cherokee Studios, where famed artists like David Bowie, Elton John, Frank Sinatra, and Elvis made records, these 12 loft-style condos will reuse the black forest walnut panels built into the original studio and dedicate space to in-home recording.

The condos, scheduled for completion in 2009, will feature: a green roof, photovoltaic arrays, a recycled aluminum façade, efficient temperature control, LED lighting, Energy Star appliances, and Forest Stewardship Council-certified wood. History combined with environment makes for excellent living, music to our ears:)
