1:10 Construction Detail

The environmental strategy for the edge hotel proposes a carbon positive hotel for the future of sustainable travel that meets the needs of traveller, the community and the environment. An ecological effort will be present of site, such as a commitment to plant trees around the UK which will represent over 5000 acres of forest which will offset an embodied carbon footprint which is equivalent to 500,000 gallons of gas and remove additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

No onsite parking will be available to decrease carbon profiles from the addition material usage. This strategy will encourage the use of public transportation and proves that onsite parking is not always necessary as cities evolve towards a more pedestrian friendly environment. The hotel will partner with a nearby parking facility for those who need it.
