Eco-friendly 1-2 Bedroom Apartments LEED the Way in Fishtown

Wanna live in Philly's most sustainable zip code?

204 - 206 E. Girard Avenue, the Levesque Flats, are set in Fishtown, where green construction and community efforts are shaping this neighborhood into Philly's greenest.

Rent 1 of 4 LEED Platinum apartments brought to you by YIKES, Inc,  a web design and development firm that will have its offices on the main floor, along with another storefront business.

What is LEED Platinum, exactly? The U.S. Green Building Council defines platinum status as a score of 80 points or above on its rating system for New Construction or Major Renovations. Points are granted for factors such as Site Selection (stormwater design, heat island effect on roof, light pollution reduction, etc.), Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere (energy performance, use of green power or on-site renewable energy), Materials and Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, Innovation in Design, and Regional Priority.

The Levesque Flats are built with sustainable, recycled, and energy efficient materials. The wood used in the flats was salvaged, including the beautifully handcrafted cabinets and bath vanities, doors, and stairs. Stay tuned for more details!
