"Sustainable Development is development that
meets the needs of the present
without
compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs"

The International Solar Energy Society New York UN Office representative Roma Stibravy organized a private tour of Le Solaire, the first residential building to be issued a ‘Gold’ LEED Certification Standard by the US Green Building Council. Built under the guidelines of the Battery Park City Authority, this residential tower is the first "green" residential building in the United States. Le Solaire, contains 293 units, is 27 stories high and has a 33 KW Building Integrated Photovoltaic System (BIPV). It is the first of many residential buildings under construction in the area that will become the model for, as the Battery Park City Authority’s website states, “healthier, ecologically responsible environments where occupants collectively enjoy the benefits of living in a "green" community.”
