'DER'S GOLD IN DEM HILLS!
August 18, 2011
Yesterday, we spoke with Jones Lang LaSalle's Clint Howell who told us it didn't cost a lot for JP Morgan to achieve LEED Gold on two of its Alpharetta office buildings. The Falls (seen here) and Lakeview II in Sanctuary Park have been awarded LEED Gold for existing buildings, the first office buildings in North Fulton to do so and one of the few suburban offices. And all in, JP Morgan spent less than $100k to get there, Clint tells us. ?It wasn't a big dollar amount to put us over the hump.? Improvements made include using a storm-water fed lake for irrigation, comprehensive recycling program, low-flow hands-free faucets that reduce water consumption by 10%, and using green cleaning products. The Falls is home to Microsoft and Hartford Insurance while Lakeview II tallies McKesson and Nielson TV ratings company among its tenants. |
