The Huguenot Apartments

New Rochelle, NY

The Huguenot Apartments in New Rochelle, New York, uses 3,500 SF of GreenGirt Max CMH™ over metal studs, behind fiber cement cladding, with mineral wool insulation. It is a multi-family apartment building, designed by Doban Architecture, built by William A. Kelley & Company, Inc., and installed by Nexen Construction.

In multi-family housing, exterior upkeep falls to the owner and disrupts tenants, so durable, low-maintenance cladding is worth specifying. Fiber cement provides that, and GreenGirt Max CMH holds it on thermally broken girts outside a continuous mineral wool layer, an insulation that is also non-combustible, which matters where dwelling units are stacked. The result is a low-maintenance, fire-conscious wall for a building occupied year-round.
