Furthermore, the assets were also awarded ENERGY STAR certification.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor our entire portfolio to reach the two highest levels of LEED certification is a remarkable achievement, and something that we are very proud to have attained,\u201d said Albert Behler, chairman, CEO &amp; president of Paramount. \u201cThis accomplishment reflects on the quality of our assets and our ongoing commitment to good corporate citizenship and sustainability initiatives. In addition, these certifications also help us manage operating costs, attract and retain premium tenants and ultimately enhance portfolio value.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The company is a recognized entity for its environmental and operational standards. Most recently, in 2016, the Building Owners and Manager Association (BOMA) of New York awarded the Pinnacle Award to two of Paramount\u2019s properties, 712 Fifth Avenue and 900 Third Avenue. The latter was awarded with the &#8220;Grand Pinnacle&#8221; award, which is the top prize in the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Also in 2016, San Francisco\u2019s One Market Plaza office building was named by BOMA San Francisco as the &#8220;Outstanding Building of the Year&#8221; for the more than one million\u00a0square foot category for its all-around excellence in building operations and management.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are pleased to have achieved Gold and Platinum LEED certification across our portfolio,\u201d added Ralph DiRuggiero, senior vice president of property management for Paramount. \u201cThis achievement is a testament to the passion and drive our staff has for advancing our sustainability initiatives to ensure we remain the industry leader in this category.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Images courtesy of Paramount Group Inc. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three of the company&#8217;s office assets, two in New York and one in San Francisco, received\u00a0awards from by the Building Owners and Managers Association as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":237,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23891,21742,21747,21786],"tags":[33990,32779,33602,33601],"class_list":["post-1004166765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-national","category-latest","category-office","category-sustainability","tag-building-owners-and-managers-association","tag-leed","tag-one-market-plaza","tag-paramount-group-inc"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
