SUMMARY:Cleveland 2030 District Tour Series: Cleveland Museum of Natural History (SOLD OUT)
DESCRIPTION:The Cleveland Museum of Natural History’s transformation project is our Green Building Challenge overall winner.  This project is an unprecedented reinvention that aligns the Museum’s architecture with its mission of instilling a passion for nature and science in all learners. Working in partnership with DLR Group\, this is the first museum in the U.S. to achieve LEEDv4 BD+C NC Platinum certification and was recently named one of the most beautiful museums in the world by Prix Versaille\, a global architecture and design award program held annually at UNESCO (United Nations Educational\, Scientific and Cultural Organization). \nWe will tour the building to appreciate the beautiful design while learning about the many innovative features and new technology used in its construction to save energy\, conserve water\, and create a healthy environment. This project reduced indoor potable water use by 37% and outdoor water use by 60%. They reduced energy use by 32% using passive strategies (low-e glazing\, R-30 roof insulation\, shading) and active systems (HVAC plant with efficient heat recovery chiller and solar photovoltaic arrays).  That’s only the beginning of what we will learn on this tour.  Join us to discover more about this truly exceptional Cleveland treasure. \nThe tour is limited to 20 attendees. \nParking is available in their attached lot or metered parking is offered on the street around Wade Oval. \nWe will follow the tour with a happy hour for networking and refreshments. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:BUILDING EDUCATION SERIES 2025: CLIMATE GOALS: ARE THEY ENOUGH?
DESCRIPTION:Leading national and local experts will provide an update on climate change and the science-based targets we must achieve to keep global warming in check. Are our targets sufficient\, or is it time to reassess them?\n\n\nOur speakers will review the science behind climate trends and the potential consequences if we fail to meet the global climate targets established by the Paris Accord.  When are we expecting to see 1.5 degrees of warming to occur and what can we predict about our climate?\nWe will examine how the built environment contributes to climate change and how intentional actions by architects and the commercial building sector can make a significant impact. We need to think about mitigation and adaptation for every building we touch.\n\nAdditionally\, we will review some key\, updated built environment related goals outlined in the Cleveland Climate Action Plan\, as well as some included in the draft Regional Climate Action Plan\, presented by Cleveland’s Office of Sustainability.\n\nWe will provide an overview of where the built environment is today and what progress has been made both nationally and globally.  Did we do enough?

SUMMARY:Cleveland 2030 District Tour Series 2025 : Playhouse Square
DESCRIPTION:We will get a tour of Playhouse Square\, one of the largest theater districts in the country\, second only to New York City.  We’ll learn of their rich history\, including their original construction in the 1920’s and the fire that closed the theaters in the 60’s.  It was a grassroots movement that saved our theater district.  Public-private partnerships raised enough money to renovate them to the stunning theaters we know today.  There is so much to learn and see\, not only about the renovations but also about Playhouse Square’s sustainability goals and how these theaters address energy efficiency. The tour will include Connor Palace\, KeyBank State\, Mimi Ohio\, and Allen theaters. Tickets for this tour are limited.  Register soon! \nThanks to our host the Playhouse Square Sustainability Committee. \nThanks to our event sponsor Vocon. \n \nTour will start promptly at 4:30 PM \nHappy hour from 5:30 to 6:30 PM \nThere is no fee but a donation is always appreciated. \nREGISTER HERE \n
