#365DaysofSustainability, Day 258: Coming soon to greater University Circle – a whole new development developed by Geis Companies. This neighborhood within a neighborhood includes a multi-family building and townhome clusters, all of which will achieve ENERGY STAR certification and will comply with Enterprise Green Communities. This development demonstrates Geis’s commitment to sustainable development! #Sustainability #EGC #EnergyStar

#365DaysofSustainability, Day 257: Geis Companies and Emerald Built Environments have partnered on many projects over the years. Our industrial clients are increasingly interested in net zero and high-performance design. That’s why they turn to Emerald for energy modeling early in design to validate design options to achieve net zero energy and carbon. A recent project in North Carolina did just that for a 400k SF warehouse facility! #Sustainability

#365DaysofSustainability, Day 256: Water is expensive – even in the Great Lakes region. That’s why LSC Services engaged Emerald Built Environments to complete a water analysis for its 11-story, 120k sf multifamily facility in Ohio. The water analysis evaluated recent spikes in water consumption to identify what water-using system might have been the culprit. Was it a running toilet or the boiler? Our team identified the culprit and proposed solutions for improvement. #Sustainability
