Leading the Way in Sustainability at CoStar Group’s Richmond Campus

Nadia O’Dea is leading some incredible sustainability initiatives at CoStar Group’s growing Richmond campus. We’re setting a new standard in environmental responsibility and employee well-being, so I wanted to share nine highlights I’m most excited about:

  1. Onsite Renewable Energy Generation: Our campus will be powered by state-of-the-art photovoltaic panels embedded in the building façade, canopies, and rooftops, generating approximately 1,300,000 Kwh/yr—equivalent to the annual energy usage of 130 homes.
  2. LEED Platinum New Construction: With a current tracking of 85 points, we're on the path to achieving LEED Platinum certification. This reflects our commitment to the highest standards in energy efficiency and environmental design.
  3. Pursuing WELL Platinum Certification: Our dedication to creating a healthy workplace is evident as we track 85 points towards WELL Platinum certification too. Features like a 25,000 SF fitness center and individual thermal controls ensure a comfortable and productive environment for our employees.
  4. Innovative Water Management: Our site includes two tanks that retain a total of 24,000 gallons of stormwater for irrigation and sustainable water use.
  5. Biophilic Design: Connecting with nature is integral to our design, with accessible outdoor green spaces and 16' slab-to-slab ceiling heights that enhance daylight access and views.
  6. Expansive Green Spaces and Outdoor Terraces: Our campus will feature over 107,000 SF of green spaces featuring native and restorative plantings and 50,000 SF of occupiable outdoor roof terraces.
  7. Commitment to Net Zero: Aligning with CoStar Group’s corporate ESG goals, we're committed to achieving net zero through the use of offsite renewables like wind and solar power.
  8. Promoting Sustainable Transportation: We already support eco-friendly commuting with generous benefits for mass transit use, and plan to add 148 bike and scooter spaces, 80 electric vehicle chargers with 208 parking spaces, and a local staff circulator to our Richmond campus.
  9. Advanced Air Purification: Our energy recovery ventilators and air handling units are equipped with high-efficiency filters (MERV 8 to MERV 15), ensuring clean and healthy indoor air for everyone.

Hi Andy, my name is Robyn. I live in one of your many properties in Arizona The Polo Club. I would like a direct email for you so that I can send you a message about my experience here which has been not a good one at all. How can I contact you asap so you are aware of what’s happening here at the polo club? I’ve lived in 2 units within 70 days and had many issues and I’m defeated. I had a new problem this morning. Thanks for taking the time to read. I really need a resolution.
