Cover Feature - January 2006

The Casey

Gerding/Edlen's most recent addition to the Pearl District is The Casey, a 15-story condo building housing 56 units. The quarter-block development, which incorporates several energy-efficient features, was designed as one of the greenest condo projects in the country.

Stephanie Coyle, Hoffman project manager, says top-down construction will allow the general contractor to finish the $40 million project by July 2007.

"We're saving approximately three months on the schedule and we're able to start building upward immediately rather than having to wait and start at grade," she said..

Sustainable design elements include solar panels that will heat water and ground-source heat pumps that will heat and cool the building. The Casey is the first condo tower designed for a LEED platinum rating, a difficult but rewarding prospect, Coyle said.
