Brooklyn's 1 Java Street to be Largest Geothermal Residential Building in U.S.

Originally Published 2 years ago — by CNBC

Lendlease is building the largest residential apartment complex in the US to be heated by geothermal energy in Brooklyn. The complex will have 834 rental units across 5 buildings, including a 37-story and a 20-story tower. Using geothermal will reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by an estimated 53%, but it will cost about 6% more to build. The project will be entirely net zero when it opens in 2025, meeting New York's new emissions sustainability standards for large buildings.
