Is the Craig Thomas Discovery and Visitor Center a sustainable building?
The building was designed to silver LEEDS standards; however, the building is not officially certified due to the additional $250,000 certification cost. Sustainable features include: Low-E glass; recycled countertops, partitions, and carpet; radiant concrete slabs warmed by low-temperature water; ENERGY STAR-rated appliances; and waterless urinals and low-flow toilets.
