Only AB People Portfolio Safety Contact WHEN IS 95 POINTS A PERFECT SCORE? WHEN AB BUILDS A LEED PLATINUM BUILDING… LEED The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System encourages and accelerates global adoption of sustainable green building and development practices. It provides a standard for environmentally sustainable construction. In addition to being a way to recognize environmental leadership in the building industry, LEED certification was created to develop and address six major areas: Sustainable Sites Water Efficiency Energy and Atmosphere Materials and Resources Indoor Environmental Quality Innovation and Design Process Currently Anslow Bryant has seven LEED personnel and takes an active role in research and development of sustainability. We recently completed The Treehouse Memorial City which scored 95 LEED points making it the greenest building in The State of Texas to date and earning the U.S. Green Building Council’s highest certification ranking – LEED Platinum. The Treehouse is a unique concept in a collaborative and sustainable office of the future. The Treehouse – a two-story, 14,700-square-foot structure located at 963 Bunker Hill in Memorial City – is home to all of Memorial City’s development activities including, master planning, architecture, construction, and interior design. It combines modern design, innovative technology, and green building principles, serving as a collaborative environment for stimulating inventive ideas between the developer and its partners. There is no shortage of green elements in The Treehouse. It boasts a geothermal cooling and heating system, daylight harvesting lights that automatically adjust in response to changing levels of natural light, and a green roof complete with solar panels, rainwater collection, wind turbine and a rooftop garden. In addition, wood used for the flooring on the interior of the building was reclaimed from the Old Cotton Concentration Company warehouses in Galveston, while the exterior wood paneling is Machiche wood, harvested from South America. Inside, the design evokes the outdoors with touches including interior columns wrapped in custom-made tree-like woodwork and conference room tables made from tree trunks. The conference rooms, which are called Nests, face a wrap-around balcony that allows for the outer facing windows to be raised similar to garage doors. To ensure accessible collaboration, The Treehouse extends its reach to MetroNational’s headquarters building via a steel and wooden bridge, which evokes the sense of an old-fashioned swinging bridge, encouraging team members to visit and work from one of the open offices or to enjoy the common spaces inside or outside of the building.
