🏗️ This is where it starts.
For the first time, we’re sharing a look at what we’re building in Alden, NY.
Our new headquarters was never intended to be just another office and warehouse.
From the beginning, we asked a different question:
What if the building itself could help pay for the building?
So instead of designing the real estate first and adding energy later, we designed the building, energy infrastructure, and economics together from day one.
It starts with a super energy-efficient building envelope, then integrates solar, battery storage, geothermal, EV charging, and intelligent energy management into one complete system.
Not added later. Designed together from the beginning.
The result?
⚡ The energy infrastructure is projected to generate enough additional NOI to cover 100% of the facility’s operating expenses, with the remaining NOI covering roughly half of the building’s mortgage, while increasing the overall value of the asset.
Even CBRE recognized that this isn’t a typical building, stating in its independent appraisal:
“The quality and condition of the proposed building improvement is superior to the market standard.”
But this project is about more than building a better headquarters.
It’s about making the asset work harder for the business that owns it.
A traditional commercial building produces rent.
What if it could produce something more?
📈 Revenue Beyond Occupancy™.
To us, Revenue Beyond Occupancy™ means creating value from a building beyond the rent collected from the people occupying it. It means turning energy infrastructure from an operating expense into a productive part of the real estate, one that can reduce costs, generate additional NOI, help service the debt, and ultimately increase the value of the asset.
That’s the bigger idea behind this project.
Building + Energy Infrastructure + Real Estate.
Designed Together. Valued Together.
🚀 And we’re just getting started.
Stay tuned. More of these buildings are already in development!
