Alexander Development Group and The Bluestone Organization have just completed one of the world’s largest Passive House multifamily rental properties at 42 West Broad Street in Mount Vernon, New York. Known simply as 42 Broad, the property is designed by Perkins Eastman and comprises 249 market-rate apartments, more than 20,000 square feet of amenities, a parking garage, and high-efficiency mechanicals that significantly limit the structure’s energy use and carbon emissions.
To celebrate the milestone, the project team, which includes an advisory group from J.P. Morgan Global Alternatives, has revealed a first look inside the building, which will soon open for occupancy.
“With 42 Broad we have created a collection of forward-thinking residences that reflect our dedication to sustainable living and represents a truly unique offering in today’s crowded multifamily real estate market,” said Eric Bluestone of The Bluestone Organization. “The upscale building’s combination of sustainable features and vast array of amenities sets it apart from other luxury properties in the area.”

Passive House Building
On most aggressive grid locked intersection.
It’s all about bad location location location
Address is incorrect. It should be 42 Broad Street West. Its also 2 short blocks from the Fleetwood Metro North Station. Excellent.
More proof that all new construction can and should be passive built.
