Seattle-Based Developer Henbart Delivers Its Second Building Featuring View Smart Windows
October 28 2021 - 7:00AM
View, Inc. (Nasdaq: VIEW) (“View”), the leader in smart building
technologies, today announced the installation of its smart windows
at Parque Kirkland, a new mixed-use apartment residence in
Kirkland, WA, scheduled to open next month. The development
represents the second project for Henbart LLC and View, following
the installation of View Smart Windows at Henbart’s Lake Union
office building, which achieved LEED Gold certification upon its
renovation.
View Smart Windows transform buildings into responsive
environments that automatically adjust to control heat and glare
without the need for blinds. The windows will serve as a key
amenity for residents of Parque Kirkland, enabling them to enjoy
continuous natural light and views of the outdoors, including Peter
Kirk Park to the south and Lake Washington to the west, and
improving their health and wellbeing as a result. A recent study
found that residents living in buildings with View Smart Windows
slept 16 minutes more and experienced 11% less anxiety and 9% less
stress compared to those living in homes with traditional windows
and blinds.
In addition to View Smart Windows, the installation at Parque
Kirkland will also feature View Immersive Displays in the
building’s rooftop cabana and entertainment center. The Displays
transform smart windows into transparent, high-definition displays
for interactive entertainment, internet browsing, interactive
collaboration, and more.
“Partnering with View gives us the opportunity to deliver
healthier, more sustainable and more engaging spaces than would
otherwise be possible,” said Mark Craig, President of Henbart LLC.
“Based on our positive experience with View at our Lake Union
office building, expanding our use of this technology into a
residential setting with Parque Kirkland was an obvious choice.
We’re thrilled to offer the benefits of View Smart Windows to our
residents.”
“View’s mission is to help our customers transform buildings to
benefit people and our planet,” said Sri Venkat, Vice President at
View. “We’re thrilled to once again partner with Henbart to support
their leadership in wellness and sustainability.”
Parque Kirkland is seeking LEED Gold certification. The building
includes a mix of thoughtfully designed studio, one-bedroom and
two-bedroom luxury apartment homes, ground-floor retail which
includes a new Bartell Drug store and office space. The building
offers many features that are new for apartment living in the
Northwest, such as an automated lift garage, a Grotto wine cellar
and lounge inspired by European design, a Peloton gym, and other
notable residential amenities. Parque Kirkland is also the first
residential building in Kirkland to include a rooftop terrace with
panoramic views. The architect for the building is Graphite Design
Group.
