Vue d'ensemble
As a LEED Gold certified project, the Kaneko Commons features water source heat pumps, a rainwater reclamation reservoir and solar hot water heating. In addition, photovoltaic panels not only augment the electricity supply for the building, but also serve as shading devices for residential units and the atrium. It also houses the Tokyo International University of America campus. The Kaneko Dorm's theme is Sustainability and the students there are especially committed to going green. Kaneko is also home to a community garden in which students go through the entire growing and consuming process
