We are thrilled about the unique opportunity to update the building systems to include a more insulated envelope, efficient water distribution systems and heating, cooling, and ventilation with greater fresh air distribution, as well as state of the art lighting and power systems that deliver a huge impact on energy consumption.
2024: New beds on all floors.
