Euler 196
Located in front of Euler Park in the San Borja district of Lima, Euler 196 is five-story apartment building with 13 units. Residents will enjoy the nearby park, while only being steps away from the La Rambla shopping center, restaurants, cafés and Peru’s national theater. The building will feature special parking for bicycles to encourage residents to use alternative transportation.
The apartment building was designed to conserve natural resources through the use of LED lighting, a reduced window to wall ratio, dual-flush water closets, low-flow plumbing fixtures and more. A green roof and clear roof finishes will also be installed to increase the thermal comfort of the building.
The developer of the project, Grupo Inmobiliario Lander, is committed to the financing and development of sustainable real estate projects that better the lives of Peruvians. Euler 196 is an example of this commitment, enabling residents to save on utilities and live more environmentally-friendly lifestyles.
Euler 196 has received a preliminary EDGE certificate from GBCI.
