Utilizing the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) guidelines, RiversideFive’s development and construction will yield a more energy efficient building, reducing operating costs and helping to minimize its environmental footprint.
 Building Construction Includes:
- Use of tilt-up concrete construction, which provides a tighter structure with less air infiltration, a low maintenance
profile and an average lifespan of up to 100 years
- Building materials, 75% of which originated from within 500 miles of the site
- Stone base, which was processed 100% on-site
 Interior Construction Includes:
- Over 20% savings in energy usage - a direct savings on operating costs
- Outdoor air usage that is 40% greater than ASHRAE 62.1-2004 requirements
- Reduction of water consumption by more than 33%
- Exclusive use of low Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) paints, adhesives and sealants throughout
- High-efficiency rooftop HVAC systems
- Automated building management system calibrated for optimal efficiency
- Fully-adhered white TPO roof system, which reduces the heat island effect with .79 SRI (Solar Reflective Index)
- Use of upgraded, high-performance low-E building glass
- Interior lighting controlled through the building automation system
 Site Amenities Include:
- Bicycle parking and preferred parking for hybrid and high-occupancy vehicles
- Convenient location - sits within 0.1 mile of a planned retail center and just over 0.5 miles from an amenity-rich shopping center
- Immediate access to on-site walking paths
- Close proximity to Frederick’s existing and planned 40-mile network of biking and jogging paths
- Exterior lighting controlled through the building automation system
