Urban Rio, Panama: First Affordable Green Container Project
Urban Core International has gone dark. The website was shut down. If you have any concerns, feel free to contact us.
Aaron Newman, founder and managing partner of Urban Core International, sent me the details of his latest project, Urban Rio. Specifically, Urban Rio is a product of Urban Core's prefab and container division called Envision Prefab. It's easy on the eyes, to say the least, and just so happens to be the first sustainable, affordable, container project in Panama.
Urban Rio units will have energy-efficient appliances, HEPA filters, energy-efficient split air conditioners, smart lighting controls, a water recycling and reclamation system, low-flow faucets and toilets, tankless hot water heaters, and a living green roof. Urban Rio will be located in Rio Abajo, Panama City, and will have 5 units in total. Units will have two bedrooms and 1 bathroom and start selling upon receiving the local approvals. Can't wait to see the real thing.
