LEED certification provides independent, third-party verification that a building project meets the highest green building and performance measures. All certified projects receive a LEED plaque, which is the nationally recognized symbol demonstrating that a building is environmentally responsible, profitable and a healthy place to live and work.

There are both environmental and financial benefits to earning LEED certification:

Lower operating costs and increased asset value.
Reduce waste sent to landfills.
Conserve energy and water.
Healthier and safer for occupants.
Reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
Qualify for tax rebates, zoning allowances and other incentives in hundreds of cities.
Demonstrate an owner's commitment to environmental stewardship and social responsibility.

The Christy Webber Landscapes Headquarters site was designed to the highest standards of the LEED Green Building Rating System™. In November 2007, LEED officially certified the building as “Platinum,” making it one of the country’s most high performing buildings; LEED had previously certified less than 20 other buildings as Platinum.
