Originally constructed in 1866\, CMC earned LEED Platinum certification under LEED v4.1 EB+OM in 2019. With the support of pro-bono work by their LEED consultants\, Emerald Built Environments\, CMC started their pursuit of the WELL Health-Safety certification in 2020 during the pandemic. CMC was able to utilize much of the work completed through the LEED Platinum EB+OM efforts to ultimately earn WELL Health-Safety certification as well. \nThis presentation will delve into consistencies between EB+OM-approved green cleaning products and WELL Health-Safety product requirements and how CMC was able to build upon policies and procedures implemented in the LEED EB+OM process when pursuing WELL Health-Safety cleaning and sanitation features\, such as Support Handwashing and Selected Preferred Cleaning Products. In pursuing WELL Health Safety Air and Water Quality features\, the museum and LEED project engineer were also able to utilize ventilation and air treatment assessments previously performed during the EB+OM certification to inform the WELL Health-Safety Assessments. The museum’s commitment to clean air and water quality\, kicked off by its LEED certification\, made the WELL ‘Monitor Air and Water’ feature a no-brainer. CMC’s process of drafting WELL Health-Safety policies captured many of the procedures and practices already being implemented. \nThe presentation will close by looking towards CMC’s recertification\, to take place three years out from initial certification under LEED EB+OM. The presenters will share how Arc is being utilized to gauge the progress and ability of the museum to maintain its operational efficiencies. \nREGISTER FOR THE JUNE 7 WEBINAR \n  \n\nFebruary: Overview of LEED v5: Taking action on climate\, quality of life\, and ecology\nMarch: LEED v5: Swift Climate Action\, Enriched Quality of Life\, and Advanced Land Use and Biodiversity\nApril: Navigating Smart Building Certifications for Sustainable Futures\nMay: LEED and Upfront Carbon Emissions: A Comprehensive Look at A1-A5 Embodied Carbon in Building Construction\nJune: LEED EBOM Plays Nice with WELL Health-Safety at the Children’s Museum of Cleveland\nJuly: Smart Building Charrette\, circa 2030: Realizing the Promise of High-Performance Green Buildings\nAugust: Exceeding ESG Commitments with LEED for Communities\nSeptember: Looking to the Future: Utilizing LEED as a Tool for Adaptive Reuse Projects\nOctober: LEED Zero Project Profiles\nNovember: Implementing the Future of LEED with LEED v5 Operations + Maintenance\nDecember: Beneficial Electrification in Northern Climates\nJanuary 2025: Inclusive Pathways to Health in LEED v5: Harnessing Biophilic and Universal Design

SUMMARY:Monthly Program - Green Building Tour of Soldiers Memorial
DESCRIPTION:View a list of event attendees \nREGISTER NOW! \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Join us for our Annual Green Building Tour! This year\, we will visit Soldiers Memorial\, which earned LEED Gold in 2018. The careful renovation and restoration of this building began in 2013\, was completed in 2018 and was led by the Missouri Historical Society. Please note the MORNING timing of this event! \nCompleted in 1938\, Soldiers Memorial Military Museum was built to honor U.S. military veterans from St. Louis. In order to preserve this beloved landmark and museum\, the Missouri Historical Society undertook its sustainable renovation and restoration in 2013. The project\, which earned LEED Gold® in 2018\, brought the museum up to modern building performance standards with energy efficient building systems and LED lighting\, while also making it ADA-accessible for the first time. The project also aimed for and achieved significant waste minimization during interior and exterior restoration and upgrades through reuse of existing materials\, use of environmentally responsible materials and diversion of construction waste. As part of the renovated vision for the museum\, the exterior site and Court of Honor were re-designed as a key space fostering community connection and engagement. Since the renovation\, the Missouri Historical Society has built on its waste reduction achievements during construction to set an example in its every-day operations\, achieving TRUE (Total Resource Use & Efficiency) certification as a zero-waste facility. Don’t miss the opportunity to tour this unique site and hear in-depth about its sustainable renovation and operations! \nSPEAKERS:  \nMark Sundlov\, Director of Soldiers MemorialKaren Goering\, Managing Director of Administration and Operations\, Missouri Historical SocietyErik Biggs\, Project Architect at Jacobs\, 2024 AIA St. Louis President\, AIA Missouri Past President \nWHEN: Tuesday\, June 11 from 8:00 – 10:00 AM \nWHERE: Soldiers Memorial @ 1315 Chestnut Street in Downtown St. Louis \nREGISTER NOW!  \n  \nADMISSIONFree – Members of Missouri Gateway Green Building Council and full time students.
