DENVER
RIVERCLAY WAS THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGION’S FIRST LEED®-CERTIFIED DEVELOPMENT.
About Riverclay Condominiums
This early LEED®-CERTIFIED project delivered one of the largest photovoltaic arrays in Denver at the time, offering enough power to light and cool nearly 80 percent of common areas and parking. Based on actual utility data, the typical residence has proven to be 60 percent more energy efficient than a comparable non-LEED® residence. The enormous balconies serve as a wonderful amenity and solar shade, reducing summer cooling requirements.
