We leverage our strategic partnerships and involvement in industry organizations to advance our ESG initiatives and thought leadership. Our Executive Team engages with
key industry organizations like NAREIT, NAIOP and Urban Land Institute (ULI) through conference presentations, committee participation and industry round tables. We
encourage our coworkers to actively participate in industry organizations and take advantage of their valuable professional development opportunities, including the pursuit
of industry accreditations.
We have participated in the voluntary Global Real Estate Benchmark (GRESB) survey since 2020 and have achieved three consecutive Green Stars. To validate the
environmental performance of our assets, we partner with ENERGY STAR and LEED to obtain asset-level green building certifications for eligible properties. Further, we
partner with the Center for Active Design (CfAD) to pursue Fitwel’s health and well-being certification for all new, wholly-owned development projects.
