Guardian's Impact On The World Of Green! The world of green building is maturing from talk of wonky equipment and energy efficiency into the health of its occupants. In fact, the environmentally friendly bandwagon has rolled itself into the daily vernacular so much that for office tenants, sustainable features are now an expectation and not simply a question mark. “Environmental standards are still important to tenants. It is more of a given now than a topic of conversation,” says Bruce Mosler, chairman of global brokerage at Cushman & Wakefield. But these features have to be seamlessly embedded within an otherwise attractive building or it will prove a challenge to lease. Green building boom is pumping billions into US economy and retrofits are fueling the trend Similarly, the president of Newmark Grubb Knight Frank, Jimmy Kuhn, says, “It matters if you ask the right person in the company, but I don’t believe anyone is making decisions here based on green.

Reposting Passage of NYC Legislation Will Bring Greener City Buildings to the Big Apple The New York City Council passed two pieces of legislation this week that will help the Big Apple take big steps toward meeting its goal to reduce carbon emissions by 80 percent by 2050. Together, the two bills, 701-A and 721-A, will require that most new and substantially renovated city-owned buildings reduce energy use by 50 percent and meet the U.S. Green Building Council's  LEED  Gold standard.
