PART TIME GREEN - Leonardo DiCaprio bought a green eco-friendly condo
Leonardo DiCaprio bought a green eco-friendly condo
Condo is a prime example of how green technology is both accessible and achievable...

Apr 5th 2008 - Leonardo DiCaprio is green and lives that way. Leo just bought an eco-friendly condo in New York City, according to New York magazine.

Building materials are all sustainable and were acquired locally. Paints, sealants and adhesives are non-pollutant emitting. Air to each residence is filtered twice for cleanest possible breathing. The water to all units is equipped with filters to remove sediment and impurities. The building is crowned with a photovoltaic grid for maximum exposure to the sun to create clean solar energy. 75% of all open roof space will be planted with trees and shrubbery.

The high-rise condo comes with programmable thermostats, rooftop green and free bike storage. The building also offers a children's playroom, indoor 50' lap pool, media café, fitness center (with yoga studio), indoor children’s Light House, landscaped Riverhouse terrace and a dog spa.

Leo is putting his money where his mouth is.
