Urban Planning Success 40 Years Later

Meet at the Third-floor promenade level of Four Embarcadero Center, San Francisco, CA 94105

Learn about how this building earned a GOLD certification in LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations & Maintenance (“EBOM”). Find out why an EBOM certification contributes significantly to gaining certification in LEED Commercial Interiors for future tenant improvements. Four Embarcadero Center is part of the larger Embarcadero Center originally developed in an effort by the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency to dramatically change the landscape of what had become a blighted area along the city’s waterfront. Over the years, investments have continually been made to the Embarcadero Center to create more energy efficient building operating systems. Boston Properties is committed to sustainable retrofitting endeavors and Four Embarcadero now stands as a testament to environmental leadership and responsibility, going above and beyond the original vision of this area being a “live-work-play city within a city.” Come discover how and why Embarcadero Four deserves the LEED Gold designation.
