LEED
As part of San Jose State's commitment to sustainability, new buildings will be designed to at least LEED Silver standards.
Moss Landing Marine Labs
Built to replace the original Lab which was destroyed by the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake, the new Lab opened in 2000.
It was selected by the US Green Building Council (USGBC) as one of fifty buildings
nationwide to pilot a new program for the Leadership in Environmental and Energy Design
for Existing Buildings (LEED-EB) standards and in 2004 was certified EB Gold.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Library
Designed in 1999 to LEED-NC Silver standards, USGBC certification was not pursued
when the building opened in 2003.
In 2008, it was decided that SJSU would apply for LEED-EB certification. A committee was assembled and work began. The performance period is Spring, 2010.
