Syracuse University seeks LEED certification

SYRACUSE, NY — Syracuse University is seeking Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification for a new building that will house a bookstore, a fitness center and retail space, according to The Daily Orange.


Spread out on four floors, the new recreation space will consist of two levels of exercise rooms and dance studios, one floor of 10,000 to 12,000 square feet of cardiovascular machines, and another similarly sized floor consisting of weight machines, the story stated.


According to previous coverage from The Daily Orange, Cameron Group LLC, a commercial development, management and leasing organization, will front the money for the building, and the university would pay it back over time from the university's operating budget.


The total cost of the 123,768 square foot building is unknown as a final agreement between the Cameron Group and the university has yet to be reached, the story noted.
