Green Valley Lofts: Las Vegas

Las Vegas, the city of sin. A place generally known by the smell of exhaust fumes, sawdust and construction happening among dozens of casinos and complexes popping up every week. It’s the fastest growing city in the country, and it finally got a taste of eco-friendly development. Green Valley Lofts is the first “green” sustainable, mixed-use residential building in Las Vegas and the renderings look fabulous. Zero VOC non-toxic paints, natural cotton insulation, bamboo flooring, tankless water heaters, whole-house water filters, low wattage lighting and dozens of other “green” details we’ve come to expect. The building also has a heat-mirorr glass facade and photovoltaic systems across the entire roof– totally inspiring. JoshSpear.com friend Bryan Brey from Transform Real Estate recently started his own eco-friendly-only realty office and this is one of the properties they represent. It’s amazing to see someone put their foot down and invest in our future by only representing buildings like this that are sustainable and eco-conscious. I don’t foresee a Vegas move in my future, but put a building like this in my neighborhood and I’m in Bryan!
