The U.S. Green Building Council has awarded a new managed care company building “Gold-level” Leadership in Energy and Design certification.
UnitedHealth Group Inc., Minnetonka, Minn., says a new, 10-story building on its headquarters campus is one of only 22 LEED-certified commercial buildings in Minnesota and one of only 8 Gold-level LEED-certified commercial buildings.
The U.S. Green Building Council, Washington, developed the LEED program to encourage architects and their clients to think about the environment when designing buildings.
