Virginia Green Building Programs,
Initiatives, Organizations and Groups
Arlington Virginia Green Building Program
Arlington is going "green!" From community centers to
private office buildings, and from new purchasing
practices to long-standing community planning, Arlington
County has made the commitment to being a steward of
its environment. Arlington County's first certified green
building opened in September, 2003 (Langston-Brown
School and Community Center), and several projects in
planning that are registered with the United States Green
Buildings Council's Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) program. Each project is
being targeted to qualify as a silver-rated LEED-certified
building upon completion.
