Brightview West End in Rockville, Maryland, is a great example of Brightview Senior Living’s Green Building Design Standards in action – it was designed and built with sustainability at the top of mind. Green roofs cover more than 50% of the roof area; this offers beautiful views, reduces stormwater runoff, and helps reduce high temperatures - known as the heat island effect. Other highlights include natural daylight throughout spaces for outdoor connection, community gardens, individual climate control for resident comfort, and 90% native plantings, which reduce water and meet biodiversity needs. This community is also easily walkable, located in the heart of Rockville Town Center and less than 0.5 miles to the Rockville metro station.
