Studio City Phase 2 shortlisted for BREEAM Awards 2021
January 28 2021 - 3:07AM
Melco Resorts & Entertainment announces Studio City Phase 2 has
been shortlisted for the ‘Regional Award, Asia’ at the BREEAM
Awards 2021. The nomination highlights the design and
implementation of the integrated resort expansion project’s
targeted sustainability strategy, as well as the project’s
contribution towards achieving Melco’s carbon neutral and zero
waste goals. The international BREEAM Awards is an annual
celebration recognizing the people, projects and organizations who
are leading the way with significant achievements in sustainable
building design, development and management.
Set to offer approximately 900 rooms and suites
as well as world-class non-gaming attractions including one of the
world’s largest indoor/outdoor water parks, a Cineplex, fine-dining
restaurants and state-of-the-art MICE space, Studio City’s Phase 2
development includes extensive planning to engineer its two hotel
tower blocks to be precisely distanced from each other, creating an
adequate ‘sky-stream’ to facilitate bird migratory pathways. The
design consideration ensures that the development is located away
from the existing Macau Cotai Ecological Zone, comprising 15
hectares of protected wetland observed as a resting place by many
species of migratory birds.
Strategies also include minimizing the impact of
basement excavation on both wetland and underground water sources.
An ecologist was specifically engaged to develop preservation
measures for existing flora and compensatory planting with species
compatible with the site’s landscape and habitat.
The development also follows Melco’s sustainable
procurement plan, which ensures all selected contractors use timber
and timber-based products that have been legally harvested, traded
and sourced in accordance with the Forestry Stewardship Council™
(FSC™) certification, as well as paints, coatings, sealants and
adhesives that have no or low-VOC content, wherever possible.
Melco currently holds BREEAM “Excellent” Ratings
for the Design stage for both Studio City Phase 2 and City of
Dreams Mediterranean in Cyprus, where Melco is developing Europe’s
largest integrated resort by incorporating the very highest
sustainability standards into its design.
