Description

Press release from the City of St. Louis Park: September 13, 2021 1:18 p.m. In September 2021, it was announced that the 10 West End office development had earned LEED certification. The city's Climate Action Plan calls for carbon neutrality by 2040. One of the city's mid-term goals is to reduce energy consumption in large commercial buildings by 30% by 2030. One tool to do this is the city's green building policy, which focuses on minimizing energy, water and waste from development. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification by the United States Green Building Council verifies compliance with these and other sustainable building practices. Only four projects in the city have achieved LEED certification, now including the new 10 West End office development. For additional information about the building, visit the 10 West End website. A grand opening is set for Sept 30, 20.21. This press release was produced by the City of St. Louis Park. The views expressed here are the author's own.
