US Building Owners Will Lead Drive Toward Healthier Buildings
The business benefits of healthier buildings are getting increased attention
NEW YORK — Building owners, developers, managers, and investors in the U.S. are increasingly interested in creating healthier buildings, according to a new SmartMarket Report by Dodge Data & Analytics, in partnership with Delos.
The report, “The Drive Toward Healthier Buildings 2016,” shows that the design and construction industry in the U.S. is poised for wider adoption of building practices that prioritize the physical, mental, and social well-being of tenants and occupants. The study also finds that the owners of such buildings are already starting to see business benefits, such as increased leasing rates and higher asset values.
