Revolución 757
Centrally located on one of the main avenues in the heart of Mexico City, Revolución 757 provides access to dozens of commercial areas, restaurants and major office buildings. The all-inclusive condo community has 168 homes ranging from one to three bedrooms. Residents also have access to many amenities such as a gym, reading area, pool, movie theater, lounges and more. The contemporary exterior of Revolución 757 matches its approach to providing a modern experience for residents. From smart amenities and a charging station for electric cars to its commitment to sustainability, Revolución 757 offers a place for environmentally-conscious residents.
The building has high efficiency boilers for hot water and external shading devices on the exterior to conserve energy. With low-flow showerheads and water-efficient water closets, residents can reduce their water consumption. These green features are expected to help residents lower their utility bills by more than one third. Construction materials such as honeycomb clay blocks also reduce the embodied energy in materials. FICADE, the developer of Revolución 757, is an innovative company committed to building modern homes in Mexico City that minimize their impact on the environment without sacrificing quality. They have chosen to certify all of their future properties with EDGE.
Revolución 757 has received a preliminary EDGE certificate from GBCI.
