“Our project is aiming for LEED Platinum certification, the highest available. This puts an extra burden on the contractor to make sure that not only are products in line with LEED standards, but the process of building becomes more complex. The contractor has to show a level of responsibility to the environment that is not usually manifested in the building practice. Brian Halprin of Green Building Services showed this and more. His behavior, actions, and relations to subcontractors, consultants, and others who played a role in this project always showed that he practiced ethically and believed not only in his end product, but in the process that he took to get there. In fact, both the clients and I hope to work with Brian again in the future on other projects.”
