Level Up: Elevated Asset Performance & Workplace Wellness

01 The Opportunity

Heitman, a global real estate investment management firm, hired Cushman & Wakefield to provide property management services to 28 State Street, which Heitman owns on behalf of an affiliate of the firm, and improve overall building performance to achieve both ENERGY STAR® or LEED® certifications. Improving 28 State Street’s operational and environmental efficiency is in line with Heitman’s commitment to environmental, social and governance excellence, and the real estate investment manager’s goals for efficient property operations and high tenant satisfaction.

02 The Solution

To achieve certifications, Cushman & Wakefield's Energy & Sustainability Services team provided guidance and consultation, completed an ASHRAE Energy Audit and benchmarked sustainability KPIs. By the beginning of 2020, 28 State Street was both ENERGY STAR® and LEED® v4.1 Gold Certified.
