Shared Resources
A second phase of Siler Yard will develop a purpose build home for MAKE Santa Fe, along with meeting rooms, exhibition spaces, performance spaces, and public open space, Siler Yard will support the surrounding neighborhood, the broader creative economy, and create a new kind of place that serves as a vibrant intersection of Santa Fe’s creative culture.
Sustainability
Siler Yard is New Mexico’s first net-zero energy multi-family project. It has been designed to generate 100% of the energy needed for the project through a utility scale solar array. It will also features cutting-edge water efficient with the lowest use of fixtures and innovative passive water harvesting. This combined with sustainable low water use plantings ensure the lowest possible water consumption.
Next Steps
