San Diego’s Historic Balboa Park Awarded LEED for Communities Certification. The Park becomes the only national historic landmark to be recognized for sustainability achievements through the United States Green Building Council's LEED for Communities and Cities certification.

Certification as a LEED community demonstrates that Balboa Park can be a catalyst for energy savings and other sustainability goals throughout the rest of the city.”
