The United States Green Building Council (USGBC) awarded the prestigious GOLD LEED-EB LABEL to Denver Place North and South Towers November 11th at the Annual USGBC Greenbuild Conference.
Denver Place is managed by Amerimar Realty Management Company of Colorado and is an affiliate of the building owner.
LEED is based on scientific standards emphasizing continuous water savings, energy efficiency, indoor air quality and green management plans. Energy efficient green buildings perform better than conventional buildings, and result in reduced utility and operating costs and increase property values.
The LEED standard defines the new benchmarking program for buildings across the country and has been adopted nationwide by federal agencies, state and local governments and interested private companies as the guideline for sustainable buildings.
Denver Place adds to its records of environmental firsts, as it was the first buildings in Denver to receive the Energy Star Label in 1999.
