A true Pittsburgh Strip District experience
Located between Burns White’s corporate headquarters and the Crane Building, a home for tech companies, Riverfront West is a true Pittsburgh Strip District experience with great City and River views from private balconies and access to the Riverfront Trail system.
Furthering 3 Crossings and Oxford's sustainability goals, Riverfront West is LEED® Gold certified.
A Euro Plaza, or woonerf, transforms from guest parking to a weekend destination for gathering. A woonerf (Dutch for living street) is a concept created in the Netherlands and designed primarily with the interests of pedestrians and cyclists in mind and as a social space where people can meet safely. This Complete Streets technique includes shared outdoor space, traffic calming, and low speed limits with priority given to all modes of transportation including automobiles, bicycles, and pedestrians. Motorized traffic in a woonerf is restricted to walking pace. The Euro Plaza will be built at the same grade as the sidewalk, without curbs. Through traffic is directed using a series of lighted bollards.
Autonomous Vehicle company Lattitude is the signature tenant, with exterior signage.
Sustainability Explored
At Riverfront West, sustainability isn't just a checkbox – it's at the core of our building's design and operations. Achieving LEED Gold certification reflects 3 Crossings’ ongoing commitment to environmental responsibility and the well-being of our community. Here are some of the impactful measures from our certification:
On-Site Renewable Energy: Riverfront West features rooftop solar panels that provide the energy needed for all core hallways and lobbies.
High Priority Site: Our choice of location not just here, but across 3 Crossings, promotes walkability and transit usage to reduce dependence on personal vehicles.
Access to Quality Transit: We understand the importance of accessible public transportation in reducing carbon emissions. That's why Riverfront West is conveniently located near PRT’s 54, 86, 87, 88, and 91 bus routes, making sustainable commuting easier for our tenants. Downtown is only 2 minutes away!
Heat Island Reduction: By using reflective white roofing materials and strategic landscaping, we're minimizing the urban heat island effect, creating a more comfortable and energy-efficient environment for our tenants and the surrounding community.
Outdoor Water Use Reduction: Through efficient landscaping practices and water-saving technologies, we bring outdoor water use to an absolute minimum, if any.
Tenant Design and Construction Guidelines: We empower our tenants to adopt sustainable practices through comprehensive design and construction guidelines, ensuring that their spaces align with our environmental goals for everyone’s benefit.
Optimize Energy Performance: Energy efficiency isn't just a goal – it's a necessity. By optimizing our building's energy performance, we're reducing carbon emissions and operating costs, creating a win-win situation for both the environment and our tenants.
Low Emitting Materials: From flooring to paint, we've selected materials with low VOC emissions, reducing indoor air pollution and creating a healthier indoor environment for our tenants.
Construction IAQ Management Plan: During construction, we took proactive measures to minimize indoor air pollution, protecting the health of construction workers and future occupants alike. These rules extend to tenant buildouts, so new occupants don’t disturb our existing tenants.
We're proud to offer a space where environmental responsibility and exceptional design go hand in hand.
