Arizona State University Lantana Hall
5885 S Twining St, Mesa, AZ 85212
Project Details:
Arizona State’s Lantana Hall is a LEED For Homes V4 Midrise college dormitory project, consisting of 120 Residential Units, classroom space, study rooms, offices, communal kitchens, and hang-out spaces. There are primarily 4-bedroom 2 bath units, with some 2-bedroom 2-bath and a handful of 1 bedroom, 1 bath suites.
Included in Green Insight’s scope of work was LEED for Homes Provider, LEED for Homes Green Rater, and HERS Rater.
Challenges:
This project posed various challenges due to its remote location (Mesa, AZ) for the Green Insight staff who serviced the project from Albuquerque, New Mexico, and due to the “late in the process” engagement of the design team with Green Insight. Green Insight jumped into action and successfully helped the project not only meet its Gold certification goal but helped them exceed it.
Solutions:
Making use of remote video technology the Green Raters at Green Insight held extra inspections remotely prior to onsite visits to ensure success. Continued communication along the way with the builder and architect was key to the project’s success.
RESULTS:
Our project success
What our clients are saying
“Green Insight is always available on-site and in real-time. Their ability to turn things around and keep a project on track distinguishes GI from competitors. They are also creative and willing to roll with the punches. In my world, things don’t always work out perfectly but the team at Green Insight is always open to finding creative solutions to figure out the most timely, cost-efficient way to resolve issues.”
Casey Cameron
Project Manager, Pavilion Construction
“Green Insight’s team is responsive, available, and provides a tremendous sense of security. We recently had a project where the goalposts changed quickly and often during the approval process. We were able to get our project approved, but I honestly don’t know how that would have gone if we didn’t have the backup and knowledge that Green Insight provided.”
Chris Beabout
Director of Development, Landmark Homes
“When it comes to green energy consultants, Green Insight takes the stress away like no other. They bring an unbeatable combination of value-engineering, industry knowledge, and out-of-the-box creativity for solutions that work. What I value most about working with Green Insight is the relationship – which is more like a partnership that has been one of the key drivers in our success. They take the stress away. And frankly, this has been the best relationship that I’ve had with somebody in this business.”
