SUSTAINABLE RESULTS; THE DEAL SHEET

Sustainability is a broad concept that has different meanings for real estate professionals around the world, says Tishman Speyer director of sustainability Riggs Kubiak, who will be speaking at Bisnow's first annual Sustainability Summit this Thursday at the NY Bar Association. It's important to bring together cross-functional groups to collaborate on initiatives, he tells us.
We snapped Riggs yesterday on top of one of Rockefeller Center' s many green roofs. At Tishman Speyer, over 11M SF of its office properties have achieved LEED certification, while another 40M SF have been registered and are in process. Tishman Speyer's also using EnergyStar to benchmark its entire US portfolio, while conducting rigorous internal energy audits globally to insure energy efficiency measures are in place.
