Fremont Business Park at Christy Street<\/a> has undergone a complete transformation over the past 18 months. A $2.5 million renovation has upgraded virtually every feature in the complex so that it looks brand new: from the large, formal tiled entries and bright hallways to new bathrooms with granite countertops, a common conference room, and a fabulous fitness facility.<\/p>\n

\"\"The latest added touch is LED lighting in the parking lot – supplied by Green Machine Light Engine<\/a>, the oldest manufacturer of outdoor LED lighting in the U.S., and a tenant in another Borelli Investment Company-marketed business complex, Club Auto Sport<\/a> in San Jose.<\/p>\n

Lighting on a Chip<\/strong>
\nLED lighting is the wave of the future – the fixtures use chip-based light-emitting diodes as the light source. Although the up-front investment is higher, LED lights save an average of 70% on energy costs. That’s not only good for the environment, but it also saves the building owners – and ultimately the tenants – in lower electric bills every year. Payback can take as little as two to four years. And LED costs are expected to decrease as chip technology continues to advance.<\/p>\n

60,000 Hours of Use<\/strong>
\nWith LED lights, there are no bulbs to change. Maintenance is minimal. And the lights should last an average of 60,000 hours – or more than 14 years of use! In addition, when the lights finally do die and need to be discarded, there’s no mercury or lead to harm the environment.<\/p>\n

\"\"Brighter Light and Increased Safety for Tenants and Visitors<\/strong>
\nBest of all, LED lighting typically provides brighter, more natural light than other alternatives. That means increased safety for the building’s tenants and guests who visit in the evening hours.<\/p>\n

Lee Jatta, Borelli’s Property Manager at Christy Street, commented on Green Machine and the new LED lights. “Green Machine Light Engine did a great job on the retrofit and the light output is amazing!” he said. “The result exceeded our expectations – our tenants have said they can see more clearly and feel safer at night. The color is so vibrant, it’s hard to believe that we’ll be saving more than 75% on energy usage – with no bulbs or ballasts to replace. It’s really great for our bottom line.”<\/p>\n
