Gerding Edlen Focuses on Sustainability
Mar 17, 2006
The Gerding Theater, anticipated to be certified LEED Platinum, will transform the historic armory building into a performing arts center and community resource
Portland Business Journal staff writer Wendy Culverwell describes OHSU’s Center for Health and Healing as a splashy show of sustainability and it is joined by The Armory's historic LEED renovation, citing these two Gerding Edlen buildings among the innovative LEED certified projects popping up in Oregon.
“[W]hen it comes to pushing the sustainability envelope, the OHSU building has plenty of company. From the Armory project in the Pearl District to the transformation of a former Best Buy store in Salem into a state office building, architects and designers and consultants say projects are breaking new ground in unheralded ways.”
