A new development in Coney Island aims to be the first sustainable building of its kind in New York City. HannahKliger takes us there and has reaction from local residents.
-- Towering 26 stories over the playful skyline in Coney Island, a new development at 1515 Surf Ave. promises change to the neighborhood in more ways than one.
"HVAC units in the apartments take heat out of the air in the summertime, bring it to this piping. And from this piping it goes into the ground and that cools our space. In the wintertime, that heat that we've put into the ground we extract through the same process in reverse to heat the space," explained Nick Pasquenza, LCOR's director of development and construction.
"You're talking about bringing in hundreds of residents in that building, alone. Thousands, between all the buildings that are going up here. But nobody is thinking about rebuilding the infrastructure," Valdez said.
