About 242 E Water St
Living green is a lifestyle -- but it has been made much easier with the new Exchange building. Built using LEED principles, dense spray foam insulation, sustainable forest maple hardwood floors, low VOC paints, granite countertops, premium Jeld-Wen windows, underground secured parking, a recycling chute, 13 SEER HVAC systems with Puron, a green landscaped roof plaza and electric car plug in. This is a metro home that is designed for those who have “been there, done that” and decided that having a refuge providing peace and comfort can be a good thing. The book exchange lounge and glass walled gym is pretty cool as well. Located at the edge of Old Town you can walk to the 27 restaurants, library, shopping, JMU, the many events on Court Square or even the new performing arts center.
