Sustainability
More sustainable living, by design.
Like its neighbor, The Fred, The Finch sets new sustainable building standards for Edina, in line with what our future residents want and value. Our energy use footprint is about 30% lower than other, similar new construction projects. The Finch has earned the US Green Building Silver Certification. Additionally, Solhem’s sister company, Renew 22, generates enough solar power to cover the energy needs of The Finch and other Solhem-built apartment units in the metro.
At The Finch, we offer electric car plug-ins, extensive on-site stormwater recycling systems, continuous fresh air exchange, bike storage at every parking stall and organics recycling in addition to other energy-saving features. Simply put, The Finch is more sustainable, by design.
