Several implementations that led to Prominence in Buckhead’s LEED Gold certification include:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Enhancement of the building ventilation to improve indoor air quality<\/li>\n
- Completion of a garage lighting retrofit project that reduced garage electricity use by 65%<\/li>\n
- Diversion over 50% of its waste from landfills through its robust recycling program<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The property management team will continue to hold educational Lunch & Learns for their tenants on green and sustainable practices like recycling and alternative transportation options and provide for other non-standard stream recycling like electronics, batteries and bulbs.<\/p>\n
LEED v4.1 is the next generation standard for green buildings which emphasizes performance monitoring. Other marquee buildings in Georgia<\/span> that have received the LEED Gold certification include Georgia World Congress Center, Salesforce Tower (previously Atlanta Plaza), and most recently, the State Farm Arena, after a 2019 renovation project was completed.<\/p>\n
“Servidyne was privileged to assist the Crocker Partners property team through the LEED certification process. From property management to engineering, everyone was enthusiastic and eager to achieve new levels of sustainability throughout the range of building operations,” said Jami Kono<\/span>, Project Engineer with Servidyne who was responsible for evaluating the building and ultimately confirming the certification level.<\/p>\n
In addition to its LEED Gold Certification, the building was awarded the Wired Certified Platinum designation earlier this year, the international standard for cutting-edge internet connectivity in office buildings.<\/p>\n
On-site amenities at the building include a newly renovated fitness center, conference facility, chef-driven café, and abundant covered parking provided by direct, covered access to the adjoining seven-level parking deck. Additionally, the building offers walkability to the Buckhead MARTA station and unparalleled access to Georgia<\/span> 400, as well as a variety of amenities within a one-mile radius to more than 50 restaurants and 10 hotels.<\/p>\n
