Casa Dominguez receives LEED for Homes Platinum certification
August 5, 2010
East Rancho Dominguez, CA - Shortly after Abode Communities celebrated the official dedication of Casa Dominguez, the innovative project was awarded Platinum certification for Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED) for Homes, the highest rating bestowed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).
It is the first multifamily housing in Los Angeles County to achieve such distinction. It is also the sixth LEED for Homes Certified Platinum multifamily project in California and only the 13th for affordable multifamily developments in the country.
"There is such a minuscule number of projects of this nature in the entire world to receive such recognition as LEED Platinum status. This is a monumental achievement," said Lance A. Williams, Executive Director of USGBC, Los Angeles Chapter.
