Paseo Verde in Philadelphia is nation’s first LEED Platinum neighborhood development

Jan. 2, 2014

Paseo Verde, a mixed-use, mixed-income community hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony last month.

The complex is the country's first Platinum LEED-certified Neighborhood Development, a distinction that it earned by creating an eco-friendly, transit-focused project.

Amenities include a fitness center, community rooms, a technology center, gardening plots, and green roofs.
