Sustainability We care about the future, so a commitment to sustainability matters today more than ever. With new demands being placed on our ecosystem we strive to develop and manage buildings that meet the needs of today without compromising the needs of future. Today’s hyper-connected world has exposed the unintended consequences of our traditional growth model. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, but there’s never been more collective awareness, motivation, and technology to grow more responsibly; to regenerate natural systems and communities rather than exhaust them. It starts with our built environment, how we cultivate a lively experience for building occupants, and how we extend that positive influence well beyond property lines. Working side by side with our clients, we listen to their needs and educate them on various strategies for sustainability that thoughtfully balance environmental imperatives with the total cost of ownership. With nearly 10 million square feet of LEED certified projects under our belt, we understand the implications that sustainable design has on operations, feasibility life cycle, user desirability and profitably. Our LEED accredited team of more than 30 property managers, chief engineers and construction managers continually measure the environmental impact of our buildings and the benefits that accrue to property owners. Using LEED as a guide, we routinely implement efficient lighting systems, sophisticated HVAC systems with BMS controls, low-flow restroom fixtures, cooling tower efficiency, smart irrigation, organics recycling, and more into our projects. By implementing smart restorative measures and sustainable features, we help our clients and communities become more resourceful, resilient and regenerative. 9.6 M+ SQUARE FEET OF LEED CERTIFIED PROJECTS 31 LEED ACCREDITED PROFESSIONALS ON STAFF 1st HIGH-RISE OFFICE TOWER (DUKE ENERGY CENTER) IN THE NATION TO RECEIVE PLATINUM CERTIFICATION (2010) LEED CERTIFIED DEVELOPMENTS Duke Energy Center – LEED Platinum (2010) LPL Financial Carolinas Campus – LEED Gold The Hub – LEED Certified The Nexus – LEED Certified VA Health Care Clinic – LEED Silver Lash Group 1.0 – LEED Silver Lash Group 2.0 – LEED Silver Sealed Air Global HQ – LEED Gold Museum Tower – LEED Silver Music Row – LEED Silver Lowe's Global Technology Center LEED EBOM CERTIFIED BUILDINGS Duke Energy Center – LEED Platinum One Wells Fargo Center – LEED Gold Two Wells Fargo Center – LEED Silver (2015) Three Wells Fargo Center – LEED Gold (2013) Wells Fargo CIC – LEED Gold (2013) 8740 Research Drive – LEED Gold (2017) At Childress Klein, sustainability is not simply a service that we provide, it is a core value essential to our mission.
