The 189,000-sf facility is part of Midtown's $180-million Technology Square Complex slated for completion in July of 2003. The cost of sustainable construction adds a minimum of 5 percent to traditional construction costs. In 2001, 6 percent of total square feet developed in new commercial construction was registered for LEED certification. Copyright 2008 Tradeline Inc.
