The Brewery District, Sapperton
No, it is not a typo. Our City has definitely taken the LEED when starting new developments.
LEED is an acronym for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.
Wikipedia defines it as “Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies intended to improve performance in metrics such as energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts.” For the full Wikipedia article…
Many of our new developments have Gold Level LEED Certification including theYouth Centre, the Civic Centre, the Queensborough Community Centre, the Brewery District development and the new Bosa Viceroy development uptown.
Not only do our project encourage liveability and economic growth, our projects are environment-friendly and at forefront of sustainability.
