Adana
Adana is a luxury residential building, located in an exclusive area of Zapopan, Jalisco. Residents of the building’s 70 units will enjoy views of the adjacent golf course and the building’s terraces, infinity pool, gym, yoga room and green areas.
The 19-story building was designed to conserve natural resources. Energy-saving lighting, a variable refrigerant volume cooling system and solar photovoltaics will be installed to reduce the building’s energy use, while low-flow plumbing fixtures and dual-flush water closets will reduce the building’s water use.
The developer of the project, Inmobiliaria Castilla, is committed to the sustainable development of residential infrastructure. By incorporating resource-efficient technology into Adana, Inmobiliaria Castilla will provide its customers with homes that help them save on utilities and live more environmentally-friendly lifestyles.
Adana has received a preliminary EDGE certificate from GBCI.
