LEED Certification Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a green building certification program focused on the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of green buildings, homes, and neighborhoods, which aims to help building owners and operators be environmentally responsible and use resources efficiently.

About CBD
Downtown Houston contains the city’s highest concentration of premier office buildings and is among the top U.S. markets for Fortune 500 headquarters. It serves as the center of Houston’s energy, legal, banking, consulting, and accounting activity. Significant public and private investment, particularly around Minute Maid Park, Toyota Center, and through the Downtown Living Initiative, has helped transform the area into a true live‑work‑play district.
The area offers strong regional connectivity, with Interstates 10, 69, and 45 running through the core. It is also the most transit‑accessible part of the city, supported by METRO Park & Ride and light‑rail service. Downtown’s office buildings are linked by one of the world’s largest underground tunnel systems, providing convenient pedestrian access and relief from summer heat.
Tenants and investors continue to be drawn to Downtown for its central location, amenitized environment, and high‑quality office space.
