The world’s largest new green building, the 3,000-room, $1.9 billion Palazzo Resort in Las Vegas received its LEED Silver rating and certificate in March. The huge resort is more than four times bigger than any other LEED-certified building, according to the US Green Building Council, which presented developer Las Vegas Sands Corp. with a LEED plaque at a recent awards ceremony. Coming soon, the Las Vegas City Center project, when completed in 2009, will boast the largest development of LEED Silver-certified projects, some 17 million sq.ft. (1.58 million sq.m.), representing some $7 billion of investment. As most of you know, everything in Las Vegas is on grand scale, now even green buildings. (In fairness, I should point out that the Chicago Merchandise Mart late last year received a LEED-EB Silver certification, making it the largest LEED project ever, at about 4.2 million square feet.)
