Bala Station Green Building Development

GREEN BUILDING DEVELOPMENT MEMORANDUM To: President at CM Properties, LLC From: Meng Cao Date: April 7th, 2014 Subject: Green Building Development Proposal at Bala Station Dear President,

I am writing to present my proposal for a green office building in the TOD development at Bala Station. Several steps will be taken to reduce energy consumption and save management cost. These steps include modifying the building envelope, using smarter management approaches for light and temperature control etc. Promisingly, you can save more than 30% energy in terms of both electricity and fuel.

Brief Introduction of the Building

This office building is a 8-storey building with 6 stories above ground and 2 stories underground as the parking garage. The building is in a rectangular shape, with 100 feet width and the 200 feet length. The footprint is 20,000 S.F.. The total floor area is 160,000 S.F. including the underground parking space. Its orientation is slightly northwest—southeast, with the longer façade facing the street.
