Chris Benedict

Apartment Interior - 228 East Third Street

Green Profile

Chris Benedict currently has fifty-six green multifamily projects completed, under construction, or on the boards. Her first green housing project, the substantial gut rehabilitation of eighteen small multifamily buildings in Brooklyn, New York was completed in 1998. In 1999 she was awarded Energy Professional of the Year by the International Association of Energy Engineers for the project.

299 East Third Street is a good example of Chris’s work. This thirty-eight apartment new-construction project on the Lower East Side of Manhattan uses 15% of the energy of a typical apartment building for no additional construction cost. Chris thinks holistically, outside the normal “green” box, and does not use “guidelines” and “point systems” for her designs. Her projects do not need grants or additional funding. Chris is a licensed architect in New York, New Jersey and Washington, D.C., and is not affiliated with LEED, USGBC or the AIA. 


Company Description

Chris Benedict’s unique understanding of buildings allows her to rethink and invent elegant holistic solutions to building systems. She specializes in rehabilitation, adaptive reuse and new construction projects that are healthy, durable and energy efficient for the same price as typical construction.
