Tri-State Office Center is Going Green

Tri-State Office Center has accepted the LEED challenge. We have obtained LEED Silver certification for 25 & 75 Tri-State with future plans to certify the whole campus.

The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System™ is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high performance green buildings. LEED promotes a whole-building approach to sustainability by recognizing performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water efficiency, energy & atmosphere, sustainable materials & resources, and indoor environmental quality.
