Reduced Living Costs:
The Westcourt resident is projected to enjoy a monthly savings of $568 compared to the average American household from reduced energy and transportation. If the Westcourt household invested their savings at 5% year over the course of a 30-year mortgage, they would have $505,170 in savings at the end of the term! This figure is conservative, as it does not take into account rising energy costs nor does it take into account the health benefits from living in a healthy building and walking/biking as a means of transportation.
The Westcourt Sustainable Features
Green Building
- First mixed-use project in Asheville to submit an application for LEED certification
- Renewable energy (solar panels on roof for a shared solar hot water system)
- Healthy building materials
- Low energy use
- Durable construction materials
- Exterior living connects residents with outdoors (all units have balconies)
Transit-Oriented Development
- Within less than 1/10th of a mile from the Haywood Road bus line
Pedestrian-Oriented Development
- Less than ¼ mile easy walk or bike ride to goods and services
- Walking or biking as a means of transportation is proven to make people healthier and reduce the risk of heart disease. Over 50% of children and 2/3rds of adults in North Carolina are overweight or obese. Living at The Westcourt, with the opportunity of walking to obtain goods and services, will enable residents to lead healthier lives.
- Since walking or biking does not burn fossil fuels, it is a cleaner, more environmentally friendly way to travel.
- Located within ¼ mile of parks, elementary school, library, grocery store, bakery, video rental, bank, restaurants, offices, convenience stores, etc.
Mixed-Use Corridor Development
- Mixing-uses allow people to walk as a means of getting around. For example, having an office in the same building in which you live eliminates the need to drive to your workplace.
- Corridor development promotes a more efficient transit system and is congruent with the goals of the City’s 2025 Comprehensive Plan.
Infill Development
- Redevelopment of a blighted lot
- Efficient use of land (not using farmland or natural habitat for new housing)
Affordable, Mixed-Income Housing
- Will have at least 18% of units meeting City of Asheville criteria for affordable housing
- Will have affordable office spaces for small businesses
- LID (Low Impact Development) and BMP (Best Management Practice) Stormwater Features.
- LID and BMP stormwater measures store the stormwater on-site during heavy rain events preventing the water from immediately flowing into the rivers
- LID and BMP stormwater measures clean the stormwater before it leaves the site, avoiding pollution of our rivers
Accessible Design for All Ages
- Will be ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant, with an elevator serving all units, so that people in need of wheelchairs can easily access their homes
- Range of unit sizes, for people who are in all stages of life
An Urban Green Community
The Westcourt features a community room for residents to socialize and gather. Recognizing that The Westcourt is a community within the larger neighborhood, the community room at The Westcourt will have the ability to open to the main commercial area in the north east corner of the building. Eco Concepts Development is tentatively planning for the main commercial area to be an authentic Tea House, with teas and foods from all over the world served in their traditional styles. The community room connecting to the Tea House invites the greater West Asheville neighborhood to socialize with The Westcourt community on a daily basis. For community meetings and other private events, The Westcourt residents will have the ability to close-off the community room from the Tea House, giving the option of privacy.
