Green Building Certifications
Corporate Headquarters
Our corporate headquarters in New York City is located in an Energy Star-certified and LEED-EB Gold-certified building through the integration of many of the latest sustainable building materials and systems into the building’s operations. Our lease for our headquarters includes certain green lease provisions that establish dedicated notice contacts for issues relating to sustainability and energy, provide for utility submetering to track utility usage and reporting and Energy Star benchmarking performance, and pursue cooperation with respect to the broader environmental performance, sustainability, or climate impact of the building. Our employees participate in surveys to support the building’s LEED certification and sustainability programs. The building’s LEED-EB Gold status was most recently recertified in August 2025.
Golf Courses
Our golf courses pursue appropriate green building certifications, including the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf. The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf, sponsored by the Audubon
Society, is an education and certification program that helps golf courses protect the environment, preserve the natural heritage of the game of golf, promote environmental sustainability, and gain recognition for the efforts of golf course operators. The program serves an important environmental role by assisting members in planning on six key environmental components of golf course operations: site assessment / environmental planning, wildlife and habitat management, chemical use reduction and safety, water conservation, water quality management, and outreach and education.
We are proud to acknowledge two of our golf courses as certified members of the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf, with Chariot Run Golf Club certified since 2009 and Grand Bear Golf Club achieving full certification in early 2025. Cabot-Managed Properties continues to work with the Audubon Society on the multi-year planning and certification process at our two remaining courses.
