Environmental Certification (LEED®)

It’s not hard to tell who’s helping save the planet and who isn’t. According to the US Green Building Council, South Waterfront is doing one of the best jobs in the country. Portland’s newest neighborhood is home to the first LEED Platinum medical building, and has the most LEED residential towers of any neighborhood in the nation. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification is the national standard for environmental building practices designated by the US Green Building Council.
