  • Great video! I encourage viewers to watch and promote this video; the LEED options available now for new and existing structures can make a big difference in our environment and the bottom line for a company.

  • Wow! No heating or air conditioning needed in this building, even with all those windows - AND using recycled materials throughout? I want this architect to design my next house!

    This is fabulous innovation and a lesson to all of us about the power of creativity.

see all

  • This is a very newsworthy event, and I'm proud of you guys for being pioneers and setting the standard in green building!

    I advise a few restaurants that employ eco-friendly initiatives & they enjoy tremendous cost-savings & loyalty. Expect this to build awareness for future development, & educating our future kids & leaders on taking care of the environment that takes care of us!

  • Thank you for the fantastic comments. As a resident of Orange County, it excites me to see how this building has taught, engaged and motivated our community to live more sustainable lives. With a conservation first mentality --it's not hard, it's smart :)
