Liberty Centre achieves LEED-EB Silver certification
Ashforth Pacific, Inc. and Liberty Northwest team up for sustainable management practices award.

Ashforth Pacific, Inc. and our partner Liberty  Northwest have combined a unique blend of energy savings and operating expertise that has resulted in the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) awarding LEED-EB Silver certification to their Liberty Centre building.

“This certification is a reflection of how we approach the day-to-day management of all our properties,” says Hank Ashforth, Chairman of Ashforth Pacific. “Since 1999, our goal has been to provide the best service with the most efficient use of resources with little or no impact on the environment. We would like to thank Liberty Northwest for their commitment to making this process work at Liberty Centre.”

Liberty Centre is a 17 story Class A office tower situated in the heart of Portland’s Lloyd District. Located at 650 NE Holladay Street and with over 277,000 square feet of office space it is the preeminent office building in the District. Featuring light rail and such amenities as a conference facility and outdoor plaza area, it also houses the headquarters of Liberty Northwest Insurance. 

“Liberty Northwest’s commitment to environmental responsibility is a reflection of how our employees work hard to deliver the highest quality service to our policyholders and agents every day,” according to Julie Burnett, President and Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Northwest.

“The Ashforth Pacific team deserves to be commended for their work towards certification,” says Elaine Aye, principal at Green Building Services, Inc. “LEED-EB certification allows building owners to document many of their good practices already in place, and Liberty Centre is a prime example of this best practice.”

An award ceremony was held at Liberty Centre on October 16th at 11:45am to recognize and promote this achievement. Speakers included the Honorable Earl Blumenauer; Past President of USGBC, Christine Ervin; and from Ashforth Pacific Inc., Chairman Hank Ashforth and CEO Scott Langley.

For The Earth
Ashforth Pacific, Inc. wants to remind everyone of our strong commitment to encouraging recycling. Within our portfolio Ashforth tenants are given the opportunity (and are encouraged) to recycle the following items: paper, cardboard, batteries, pop cans, plastic bottles, glass, metal and packaging “peanuts”. Additionally within our properties, we are recycling building materials such as fluorescent lights and wood pallets.

Computer equipment (including monitors) is one item we are not able to provide regular recycling of for our tenants. However, we have found where you can go to refurnish them locally. Free Geek offers computer recycling by putting them back into the market, rather than putting them into our landfills. Arrangements can be made through Free Geek, 1731 S.E. 10th, Portland, Oregon, or by calling 503.232.9350. Free Geek is a non-profit organization, and you can get further information by visiting their web site at www.freegeek.org.

Thank you for joining our continued efforts at recycling as much as possible. If you have any questions regarding whether an item is recyclable, please call Property Management at 503.233.5696.
