Bette & Cring understands the benefits – both environmental and fiscal – of sustainable design and construction. We offer a solid background in meeting LEED criteria. Among our many certified LEED Projects, we are proud to have constructed a LEED Platinum-certified building (the adaptive reuse of a historic building, circa 1865, to create a dynamic corporate headquarters) under the guidelines for New Construction (NC 2.2) – the fifth building to reach this prestigious level in New York State.

Over the past decade, Bette & Cring has made a commitment to promoting sustainability in our public and private sector projects. The firm has a staff that includes several LEED accredited professionals and supports continuing education for our team members to keep current on sustainable technology and innovations.
