Tarrant County Southeast Subcourthouse
x
<p><span style="font-family:serif">Premier courthouse in Texas to receive LEED certification. Working as the team’s sustainable design expert, Amanda Tullos (GBS) provided design assessment to help this new 56,000 square-foot, three-story courthouse and office building in Arlington become the first LEED-certified courthouse in Texas. High-performance glass, insulated metal panels and roof system, and sunshades helped make the project 32% more efficient than required by the International Energy Conservation Code and 50% more efficient than similar buildings in the county’s portfolio. The project also conserves 42% more water than code requirements. Inspired by its success, this facility set the stage for Tarrant County’s continued pursuit of LEED certifications and positioned the County as a leader in both the public and private sectors.</span></p>
