Venue Overview: Greenhouse is an upscale and trendy nightclub. The bilevel, 6,000-square-foot space is the first nightlife destination in New York to seek LEED certification, the official stamp of approval from the US Green Building Council. That means that everything from building materials and garbage disposal, energy and water usage, has to be regulated and reduced. With walls made of sustainable bamboo instead of wood and LED lightbulbs that use just one-thirtieth of the energy of regular incandescent bulbs, the space cost 40 percent more to build than a traditional club.
