Green Buildings - Green Construction - Real Estate |
We evaluate our projects through the lens of what is popularly known as a triple bottom line: the impact ofa project financially, socially, and environmentally. With this in mind, we view our projects through a few simple, pragmatic screens: First, we seek to undertake actions that contribute to bestpractices in the real estate business. Second, we seek projects that push us to learn more about this very young industry, and share what we’ve learned with others. Finally, we seek projects that help usteam with partners who want to make a difference and join us in our pursuit.

We step forward and the project shows us where we’re going. |
