Environmental Sustainability –
Reducing Our Carbon Footprint
Central Park incorporates industry-leading environmental and sustainable initiatives for a clean, energy-efficient lifestyle. Green design is showcased throughout the architecture starting at the top: the tower is topped with a glass crown in which reflective solar panels generate the purest energy and green roofs reduce energy consumption and absorb rainwater. The thermal building envelope minimizes energy usage and next-generation mechanical systems incorporate advanced air flow and filtration systems. EV (electric vehicle) charging stations are located throughout the parking areas in
residential and visitor parking spaces, promoting safe, clean travel – free of emissions. There is direct access to the TTC subway and GO Transit to minimize driving, helping to reduce energy consumption – or go green with use of the on-site bicycle- or car-share service. The suites incorporate low water- and electrical- use systems and appliances, and provisions for cutting-edge automation, enabling residents to control temperature, lighting, multimedia or other items from their smartphone.
