LEED-EB Silver for World’s Largest Commercial Building
The Merchandise Mart in Chicago is the largest commercial building and second only to the Pentagon as the largest building. So getting such a large building into the LEED program was a great step for promoting green buildings. In November, the Merchandise Mart received its certification as a LEED-EB Silver building. That’s a whole lot of square footage (4.2 million square feet) to be part of the LEED-EB program.
