Former Warehouse Now LEED Gold Certified

Located on the central east side of Portland, is the newly renovated warehouse. Now known as RiverEast Center. The $17 million dollar project is now a commercial space for 250 creative professionals, 7 businesses, 2 non-profits, and is also providing public use of an attached boathouse. RiverEast Center was certified LEED Gold. This means the building is completely energy efficient through recycled and reclaimed products, storm water systems, natural lighting, just to name a few requirements. Because of the hard and innovative work that was put into RiverEast Center, it was named “Best Green Renovation of 2007″ by NW Construction Magazine. Once again we see an example of how Portlander’s are taking the lead in being GREEN.
