That's a lot of volume of air-conditioning, that's a lot of savings that can happen with those residential units compared to those office spaces, it's just that the office spaces really want that flexibility, that ability to shift all that stuff around, so you're spending a lot of money, you're making a bigger building, you're having to air-condition and heat more volume of space in those office spaces, to get all that flexibility, but in those situations it's pretty worth it, but in the residential it just wouldn't be worth it. So these tend to be much more reasonably-priced buildings in order to build them for those reasons, because you're tightening them up so much.
