Muse (19th and Overton)

This six-story apartment building in Portland, Oregon, includes retail and restaurant space. Muse, which is LEED for Homes Midrise Platinum certification, is designed to perform more than 20 percent better than Oregon energy code requirements. Numerous holistic sustainability strategies were implemented with the project, including locally sourced and recycled content materials; Red List-compliant insulation, liquid applied air and water barrier; and drought-tolerant native, adaptive plantings and WaterSense plumbing fixtures.
