LEED - Sustainable Design

What does GOING GREEN really mean?


Burke Construction Group was one of the first general contractors in Nevada to embrace the LEED Movement.  With Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) accredited professionals, we can provide our clients a project that will meet one of the four LEED Certification levels – Certified, Silver, Gold or Platinum.  LEED® is the USGBC’s rating system that grades projects based on water conservation, energy efficiency, environmental quality and other factors. Burke’s team is committed to assisting clients in understanding the accepted benchmarks for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings and obtaining certification for their projects.


With industry leadership, comes responsibility.  Burke Construction Group, Inc. has become even more socially responsible with the construction of two of the largest LEED® Gold certified projects in Nevada history; the Mandarin Oriental Penthouses at Project City Center and Cashman Equipment Corporate Headquarters in Henderson, Nevada.


Burke goes beyond believing that sustainable building is the future, we are practicing sustainable principles today.  At Burke, we are always considering the wise use of our natural resources. At your request, these environmentally-conscious design techniques can be used to minimize the environmental impact of your construction project by enhancing efficiency and moderation in the use of materials, energy, and development space resulting in a healthier work and living environment.  Your employees will be more productive, job retention and days worked will increase, and your guests will enjoy a more comfortable atmosphere.  It is through small steps that we believe we can make a great impact on the way we responsibly conduct business.


Burke Construction Group feels a personal responsibility to the community where generations of our families will continue to live and grow. We are proud of our affiliation with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and our on-staff LEED accredited professionals.  Burke has fully embraced green building technologies and sustainable development, which continues to be reflected in the work we do.
