LEED "Leeding the Way"
LEED is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics that matter most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts.
Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED provides building owners and operators a concise framework for identifying and implementing practical and measurable green building design, construction, operations and maintenance solutions.
LEED is flexible enough to apply to all building types – commercial as well as residential. It works throughout the building lifecycle – design and construction, operations and maintenance, tenant fitout, and significant retrofit. And LEED for Neighborhood Development extends the benefits of LEED beyond the building footprint into the neighborhood it serves.
CMSWillowbrook receives AGC Build Oklahoma Award 2010 - DHS-CAP Building Sustainable Renovation LEED Gold Certified.
"Once one of the least-efficient buildings operated by the Oklahoma Department of Central Services (DCS), the recently renovated Construction and Properties (CAP) building, a circa 1965, 11,427-square-foot facility in Oklahoma City, now serves as the flagship for energy efficiency in Oklahoma state government facilities".
