The Metro 1 Green Building Resource Center is a space designed to educate the community about the green building movement and the resources available for the many facets of the green building industry. The center offers a touch-and-feel atmosphere, allowing visitors to connect with materials on a physical level; however, printed materials are available to visitors for informational purposes.
One of the most important functions of the Metro 1 Green Building Resource Center is to match product and service prodviders with customers, add value to the green building industry and our visitors, create local jobs and provide adequate training and information to those interested in the green building industry.
