The CCI Center on Pittsburgh’s South Side, designed and operated by Conservation Consultants, Inc., just received the LEED for Existing Buildings Gold Certification. This is the first LEED-EB certification in the Pittsburgh region.

The Gold rating criteria includes building operations and system upgrades in existing structures where the majority of interior or exterior surfaces remain unchanged.

CCI worked with Tai + Lee Architects, Bert Davis, and Clearview Project Services Company on the initial green renovation of the building in 1998.

Subsequently, CCI and the Green Building Alliance developed green policies for future construction and implemented a green operations and maintenance plan in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Resources Council and Tudi Mechanical Systems.
