What is the Difference?

D

Great Conventional Design What & Where: •  Tear Down Rebuild :"" 5.6 acre off Rte 202"

•  Program: 205,250 gsf Architecture and Building Common Interiors with 85,000 gsf 2 deck garage"

§  Completion : January 2008

Design Advantages: •  Good Orientation •  Great Glazing •  Sited close to Public

Transit •  Superior mechanical

systems •  Previously developed

site •  Construction Waste

Management underway •  Steel structure

Constraints: •  Under construction – fully framed with slabs being placed

B

Corporate Directive to Sustainability

•  Reduced cost of energy, water and maintenance

•  Increased connection with environment – views, buses, bikes, native species

•  Superior Indoor Air Quality – low VOC, high filtration

•  Sustainable materials – recycled content, regional material

•  Tenant guidelines – LEED CI easier

•  Synergies

Corporate Sustainability Advantages:

•  Market Driven •  Bottom Line
