Greenbelt Brooklyn at 361 Manhattan Ave. #5B

A first in Brooklyn, Greenbelt is a LEED-certified green building that uses state-of-the-art environmental technology, and with it creates a quiet, efficient and truly healthy space to live in. There are only 8 residences, sitting atop a commercial condominium already in contract with Contemporary Performance Research, a dance company and arts organization. The intensive focus on insulation is not only for energy efficiency, it effectively sound-proofs your home. The solar panels on the roof pay for the electricity that runs your elevator and all the other common area needs, drastically reducing your common charges. Greenbelt uses the next generation Kone Eco Space Elevator, which is not only very energy efficient, it is very quiet. Lastly, air in the entire building is constantly circulated and filtered to standard more broad and strict than HEPA, which means no stagnant air and vastly reduced pollutants and allergens. Suffice to say that appliances and finishes are all what you d expect in a high-end condominium, and each unit comes with private outdoor space and a storage room in the basement.
