LEED Gold In Portland [Mississippi Avenue Lofts]

 

The Mississippi Lofts are a new mixed-use development (56,000 square feet) coming to Portland's Mississippi Historic District.  It looks as if they are going all out on this one.  Brownfield redevelopment...check.  Storm-water Management system...check. Use of regional materials...check.  Certified wood, use of low-e paint and materials, water efficient landscaping...all check.  The are shooting for LEED Golf certification, which requires between 39-51 points on a LEED scorecard and the Mississippi Lofts are attempting to receive 48 points.  They are scheduled to be completed by next month but by the looks of their blog, they seem to still be in the construction phase.  HOA fees seem to run from about $170 to $300 per month depending on the unit.  Some of the smaller units are going for about $393 per sq/ft (737 total square feet) where as the larger units go for about $341 per sq/ft (1172 total square feet).
