The structure also is one of the "greenest" buildings in the country, and is on track to become the second building in the Southeast to attain Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification through the U.S. Green Building Council. First place honors belong to Emory's Whitehead Biomedical Research Building, which earlier this month became the first facility to receive LEED certification in the Southeast, and one of only 26 LEED-certified buildings in the nation. The intensive certification process evaluates the environmental sustainability of building design, construction and operation. ###
