BOMA Publication and Green Real Estate Symposium

I've recently submitted an article to the Atlanta chapter of BOMA, which has just been published in its quarterly publication of "Insight: The Commercial Real Estate Journal."

Don't Forget About Energy Star!

The entire issue's focus is on "Saving Green by Going Green," and also features great articles by Greg O'Brien (Sustainable Options), and Wayne Robertson (Energy Ace). Also featured are two great case studies of Atlanta office buildings which have recently achieved LEED-EBOM Gold certification: the historic Hurt Building, and 1155 Perimeter Center West. Congratulations to those buildings for such a great achievement!

I'm also excited to be a part of BOMA's newly created Green Real Estate Symposium Task Force. The team is led by Pat Freeman, and consists of prominent sustainability experts from firms including Behringer Harvard, Wells Management Company, CBRE, Parmenter Realty Partners, and General Services Administration. Our objective is to organize an event in early 2010 related to sustainability in buildings. Stay tuned for more information..
