The entire building is set to be lifted off the ground plane to create a large garden at lobby level. The green space has been designed to act as a base for a vertical garden, which will extend through the upper level terraces.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.instablogsimages.com\/images\/2010\/04\/13\/whitehorse-street-development_3_NWd6O_69.jpg\" alt=\"whitehorse street development_3\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The architects have also included internalized facades, exterior terraces and beautiful garden frontages to their residential properties. Due to the green spaces, access to the site has been limited, which makes the designers construct an underground parking facility for residents. The development will include high-end residential apartments, an apart-hotel and retail facilities along the underground parking. Construction is expected to be complete by May 2012.<\/p>\n<p>Via: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.worldarchitecturenews.com\/index.php?fuseaction=wanappln.projectview&#038;upload_id=13796\">World Architecture News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eco Factor: Sustainable residential development with green spaces.
