Museum Tower uses heat pumps in pursuit of LEED Gold

摘要

Luxury andefficiency seem to sit at opposite ends of the spectrum. Luxury implies a superabundance, while efficiency or "eco-friendly" implies either making do with less or going without altogether. The Museum Tower residential high-rise hopes to be a happy marriage of the two. The tower includes 115 one-, two-and three-bedroom condominiums that range from 1,800-sq.ft. peid-a-terres to a 9,000-sq.ft. penthouse. Luxury features include balconies, floor-to-ceiling glass walls, private elevator entry and access to a host of amenities including a state-of-the art fitness center and 24-hour valet and concierge services.
