\u201cThe solution to the critical housing shortage in the US is to build modular, which delivers a project cycle up to 50% faster than site-built construction.\u00a0 100% factory built housing ensures a predictable delivery time coupled with the highest quality from our highly automated robotic production line.\u00a0 But in addition to modular, we need to build high to maximize the use of land, particularly in the urban environment where land is at a premium.\u00a0 This is the promise of Holon Building:\u00a0 fast, affordable construction for both market rate and affordable housing\u201d said Sunny Wang, President of BROAD U.S.A.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

During the celebration, Jasper Diaz from the Office of New York City Mayor Eric Adams presented a City of New York Certificate of Recognition to BROAD U.S.A. \u201cfor its commitment to offering environmentally-friendly services and energy solutions that have helped industries across every sector to reduce their energy consumption and carbon emissions.\u201d\u00a0 The Certificate further recognized BROAD U.S.A.\u2019s work with the New York City Accelerator, established under the auspices of the Mayor\u2019s Office of Climate and Environmental Justice, and is charged with helping building owners to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions in order to comply with Climate Mobilization Act goals to make NYC a greener, healthier city.<\/p>\n
