The LEED Gold, John J. Willaman
Education Center

The Arboretum has long been an advocate of sustainable use of the earth’s resources and responsible environmental stewardship. This was made undeniably clear in April 2009 with the opening of the new John J. Willaman Education Center.  Under the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program, the Education Center has earned a Gold designation, the second highest green building award.
