Numerous factors were considered in the construction of 888 San Mateo Apartments to ensure our community was designed and built using strategies that were mindful of human and environmental health. In 2014, 888 San Mateo Apartments' sustainable measures were officially recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) when it achieved Platinum level certification for LEED® for homes.
888 North San Mateo Drive is nationally recognized by The US Green Building Council as the 2014 LEED® Outstanding Multifamily Project of the Year. Learn more.
The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) is a 501(c)(3) non profit composed of leaders from every sector of the building industry working to promote buildings and communities that are environmentally responsible, profitable and healthy places to live and work.
The mission of the USGBC is to transform the way buildings and communities are designed, built and operated, enabling an environmentally and socially responsible, healthy, and prosperous environment that improves the quality of life.
LEED®, or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is redefining the way we think about the places where we live, work and learn. As an internationally recognized mark of excellence, LEED® provides building owners and operators with a framework for identifying and implementing practical and measurable green building design, construction, operations and maintenance solutions.
With nearly 9 billion square feet of building space participating in the suite of rating systems and 1.6 million feet certifying per day around the world, LEED® is transforming the way built environments are designed, constructed, and operated --- from individual buildings and homes, to entire neighborhoods and communities. Comprehensive and flexible, LEED® works throughout a building's life cycle.
LEED® certification provides independent, third-party verification that a building, home or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at achieving high performance in key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality.
Developed by the USGBC in 2000, the LEED® rating systems are developed through an open, consensus-based process led by LEED® committees. The next update of the LEED® rating system, coined LEED® 2012, is the next step in the continuous improvement process and on-going development cycle of LEED®.
