Mottainai (pronounced Mott-tie-nai), is a Japaneese word that means it's too valuable to waste. Building on this concept, this LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified all "green" building, is the first of its kind in the Gateway Quarter. Mottainai is designed to provide flare and uniqueness while utilizing environmentally responsible and energy efficient materials.
Mottainai offers an eco-friendly lifestyle that will save operational cost for the homeowner over time — smart energy meters, high effciency HVAC, energy efficeint lighting and energy star rated appliances, just to name a few. And living green doesn't mean sacraficing lifestyle — all units in Mottainai have unique patterned cork and bamboo floors, Quartz countertops and translucent paneling in bath areas made from recycled 2-liters. The lofts have a clean, sharp and modern feel with bold Asian color acents. Finally, residents of Mottainai will be supported in their green lifestyles with a recycling cove and bike racks.

* Lower operating costs and increased asset value.
* Reduce waste sent to landfills.
* Conserve energy and water.
* Healthier and safer for occupants.
* Reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
* Qualifies for 12 year tax abatement in Cincinnati and federal tax credits.
