Frequently Asked Questions
Sustainability
Wellness
How does Veris Residential engage residents in its sustainability initiatives?
As a Gold Green Lease Leader, all Veris leases include a Sustainability Addendum to encourage residents to conserve resources. This addendum covers energy efficiency, water efficiency, waste and recycling, indoor environmental wellness and cleaning product suggestions.
In addition, each property is home to an urban apiary with two honeybee hives. Residents have a chance to engage in bi-annual workshops to learn more about the bees and grab a jar of honey made at their own community.
How does Veris Residential collaborate with sustainability experts and organizations?
Here’s a quick snapshot:
Veris Residential is working to obtain Green Certifications (LEED or equivalent) across all communities. Currently, 83% are Green Certified, giving third-party verification to our sustainability commitment.
Veris is also a part of many global and national sustainability initiatives including GRESB, the UN Global Compact, the United States Green Building Council, as well as the Department of Energy Better Buildings Initiative as partners in the Better Climate Challenge and Water Savings Network.
Locally, we work with Alvéole on our urban beehives, ensure all appliances are Energy Star®-rated, and at select communities offer hydroponic farms with Green Food Solutions (Haus25, The BLVD Collection and Liberty Towers), as well as composting services with local providers.
What sustainable transportation options are supported at all Veris properties?
As part of The Veris Promise, all of our communities offer complimentary bicycle storage on a first-come, first-served basis.
Additionally, the majority of Veris properties are strategically located near public transportation options. If they are not, we do our best to provide shuttle service to local bus and train stations.
How do Veris Residential's wellness features directly impact my daily living experience?
Living in a Veris Residential community means experiencing wellness benefits validated by our WELL Health-Safety Rating. This prestigious certification ensures our properties maintain excellent air quality through advanced filtration systems and follow rigorous cleaning protocols in all common areas.
Our emergency preparedness measures provide peace of mind, while thoughtful design elements promote mental well-being through features like noise reduction and optimal lighting. These wellness features work together seamlessly in the background of your daily routine, supporting your health and comfort without requiring extra effort on your part.
What green cleaning practices does Veris follow in its buildings?
Our cleaning vendors have committed to green cleaning practices and are periodically audited. This ensures that all common areas are maintained using environmentally responsible products that are both effective and safe for our residents and staff. Green cleaning products help maintain excellent indoor air quality while reducing our environmental impact.
How does Veris support residents in maintaining a healthy work-life balance?
At our communities, you’ll find thoughtfully designed spaces that support both productive work and relaxation. Your home will offer various workspace options, including quiet amenity spaces, coworking areas and free WiFi throughout common areas.
Depending on the community, you may have access to private work pods, conference rooms or computer stations. These amenities allow you to separate your work and living spaces while staying connected and productive without leaving home.
We encourage you to scroll up to see which specific spaces are available in this community.
