'Green' is more than a buzzword, and much more than a pretty color. Every design and material aspect of The Abbey has been tailored out of respect and care not only for the environment, but for the neighborhood, the inhabitants, and future generations.

From a 100% recyclable construction system, to a radiant concrete floor heating system (relieving the need for carpeting); to the minimized visual impact of the in-ground garages and the fully recyclable metal roofs, The Abbey discretely demonstrates energy and resource stewardship. From renewable maple cabinets with paperstone worksurfaces, to recycled glass tiling that accents the kitchen and bathrooms, even their interior styling is responsible.

Additionally, the arrangement of the homes is designed to maximize solar gain while reducing the demand for heating and cooling. Stairwells have been designed to provide passive cooling when windows are open. Utilizing Structural Insulated Panel construction, The Abbey is estimated to achieve a 30-50% better insulation factor - and that equates to greater energy efficiency.

With only a 4 minute commute to Downtown Spokane, bus routes and bike lanes only 1 block in either direction, and a neighborhood center 3 blocks away, living at The Abbey helps you keep more green in your pocket, and less pollution in the air we breathe. If that's your kind of green, then The Abbey is your niche.
