Issaquah Trails Townhomes meet the criteria for sustainable building in a variety of ways.  Some of the key strategies employed in this complex include:

Location

  • Building in-fill in City of Issaquah near historic downtown.
  • Proximity to transportation – 2 major park ‘n rides near by and on bus route.
  • Proximity to major employers such as Costco, Fed-Ex, Issaquah School District, Microsoft and major hospitals and schools.
  • Adjacent to Rainier Trail head.
  • Short distance to entertainment, dining, grocery, worship, schools and more.
  • Surrounded by five mountains that comprise the Issaquah Alps.

Sustainable Building Practices

  • Siting the building on the lot for optimal exposure to natural light and heat source.
  • Built in compliance with the City's storm water runoff practices and procedures to ensure the nearby Salmon streams were protected from disturbance to the site.
  • Constructed using a healthy jobsite plan which included repurposing scrap materials when possible and following onsite recycling policies.

Energy Savings

  • Energy Star stainless appliances.
  • Low maintenance Caesarstone countertops and bamboo flooring and ceramic tile.
  • Rinnai tankless water heaters save on water and heating costs and located in close proximity to the highest use source in the home.
  • High efficiency forced air heating systems.
  • Superior insulation.
  • Dual pane, low-e windows by Jeld Wen.
  • Drought resistant plantings and drip irrigation system.
  • Water individually monitored to enable accountability per household for water use.
