Neighborhoods Go Green: LEED for Neighborhood Development and Scaling Up Sustainability
The U.S. Green Building Council, the USGBC-NCR Chapter, COTEdc, and NCAC-APA jointly invite you to a panel discussion and reception about LEED for Neighborhood Development. Cities, developers, and designers are searching for new strategies to develop sustainably, particularly at the district scale. LEED for Neighborhood Development is one of many sustainability frameworks and has received traction for both new and redevelopment projects, as well as a policy tool for local governments. Join development, design, and policy experts from the Washington, DC region who will present several LEED-ND projects and will discuss the implication of growing as sustainably as possible in our economically robust region.
