very state affords some level of protection to contractors, subcontrac-

tors and suppliers who have provided labor and materials toward the improvement of real estate. Commonly known as construction or mechanics’ liens, in the United States the entitlement to a claim has its roots in the founding of Wash-ington, DC. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison encouraged the Maryland legislature to provide a mechanism by which contractors could feel confi dent venturing into the swampland to construct the buildings and improvements which now con-stitute our capital city.

While lien claims had their origin in ancient law dating back to Roman times, their modern form is clearly a crea-ture of statute. Each state’s leg-islative scheme outlines a dif-ferent set of steps which must be followed in order to perfect a lien claim. The timing of advance notices, pre-lien certi-fi cations and actions to enforce lien rights vary wildly from state-to-state, as does the case law interpreting a potential claimant’s entitlement to take advantage of this often pivotal right to demand payment not only from a contractor who is in default, but from the owner of real estate itself even if it has no contract with the party seeking to fi le a lien claim.

Pennsylvania courts have traditionally adhered to a very strict reading of its Lien Law, noting that the remedy is in derogation of common law; and due to the special nature

thereof, when a party’s rights to file a lien are challenged, its entitlement will be closely scrutinized. Often owners or other parties opposing a lien claim will rely on older cases interpreting the statute, which suggest that if the strict terms of the Lien Law are not rigor-ously adhered to, a claimant’s lien may be subject to prompt dismissal. In PA, owners may no longer rely on this strict scrutiny to tip the scales in their favor, and against a lien claimant’s rights.

Last month, in Bricklay-ers of Western Pennsylva-nia Combined Funds, Inc. v. Scott’s Development Co., the Pa. Superior Court confi rmed for the first time that when defi ning the class of available lien claimants, the scope of the Lien Law’s protections must re-ceive a broad interpretation, to further the statute’s remedial purpose of protecting pre-pay-ment of labor and materials, and to promote justice.

In Bricklayers, the lien claim-ants were trustees of union employee benefit funds; and the owner asserted that the benefi t funds were not entitled

to assert a lien claim for unpaid contributions. In reaching its decision, the Superior Court found that union members’ col-lective bargaining agreements actually qualifi ed as “subcon-tracts” under the Lien Law. The Superior Court held the statute must be “liberally construed” to “effectuate the Mechanics’ Lien Law’s remedial purpose of protecting pre-payment of labor and materials.” In lan-guage which will reverberate in PA Lien Law cases for the foreseeable future, and brings interpretation of the statute into line with some neighboring states, the PA Superior Court notes,

If the Mechanics’ Lien Law is to be construed to advance its remedial purpose, the scope of the statute’s protection should receive a liberal interpretation, especially when it involves de-fi ning the class of available lien claimants.

If you are considering wheth-er you have a right to fi le or dispute a mechanics’ lien claim on a given project, it is still es-sential to bear in mind those le-gal deadlines for notifi cation to

ETHLEHEM, PA — The Kislak Company, Inc., the dominant

investment real estate sales fi rm in the tri-state region, an-nounced the $36.7 mil-lion sale of a four-prop-erty multi-family portfolio with a total of 430 units in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

The sale included The Mead-ows at Lehigh with 176 units, The Hills at Lehigh with 156 units, Waters Edge with 80 units, and Riverwalk Town-homes with 18 townhomes. President and co-managing director Robert Holland repre-sented both parties, longtime Kislak clients, in the transac-tion.

“Kislak had previously sold these properties six years ago,” said Holland. “At the time, the properties were in need of a complete turnaround. The seller subsequently completed many improvements includ-ing renovating over 70% of the units, and raised the oc-cupancies signifi cantly. The properties are now in excel-

B

lent condition with stable ten-ancies. The sale provided an opportunity for the purchaser to acquire strong properties in an expanding market while increasing its presence in the Lehigh Valley.”

The Lehigh Valley is the fastest growing and third most populous region in Penn-sylvania, and the Interstate 78 corridor connecting New Jersey and Pennsylvania is benefitting from population growth and several major de-velopments. It is a one-hour drive from New York City.

The properties are located in suburban neighborhoods in high-quality school districts, and the submarket has solid

employment. The new Sands Casino and Resort, Lehigh University and many other major employers are nearby.

As part of the transaction, the purchaser assumed a $28 million Freddie Mac loan han-dled by Beech Street Capital. The seller was represented by Alan Hammer, Esq. of Brach Eichler, LLC of Roseland, NJ. The purchaser was represent-ed by Robert Schachter, Esq. of Greenbaum, Rowe, Smith & Davis LLP of Woodbridge, NJ.

At the time of closing, the properties were approximately 96% occupied. The purchaser plans to complete renovations to the properties. ■

ABC Delaware Chapter ABC Pennsylvania Chapter

The 2012 ABC Delaware Board members were sworn-in during the January dinner meeting at the Christiana Hilton, with John Gooden of M. Davis taking the helm as chairman. During his speech, Gooden outlined his agenda for the year, and encour-aged all members to become more involved in their trade organization.

ABC National Region 5 Vice Chair Pamela Volm (left) presides over the Oath of Offi ce during the Board Induction ceremony January 12.

“It has been a tough time to be in construction for a long time. The economy is ugly, capital budgets are shrinking and the regulatory environment is brutal,” said Gooden. “It’s been hard out there for so long that some people have given up. We are not giving up. ABC needs to lead the charge in getting its members back to work. Our members need to be working, growing and building a backlog.”

During his speech, Gooden shared how is involvement in ABC came to be and what it means to be an active member of ABC Delaware.

ABC Delaware 2012 Chairman John Gooden“For a long time, I was just a body that could go to ABC

meetings when needed. My real involvement with ABC started through the vo-tech schools,” said Gooden. “M Davis has been a big supporter of our local vo-techs for many years and I got active in working with some of their programs in the mid 90’s. My involvement in the vo-tech schools led to me joining the Careers in Construction committee at ABC. I’m still active to this day with the schools and it is one of the most rewarding parts of my job. Our workforce is made up of numerous suc-cess stories from the vo-tech system.”

Gooden’s goals for 2012 include business development by targeting users so ABC members get the fi rst call about upcoming jobs; helping students and their parents realize that work in the construction industry is viable and you can have a construction career; becoming politically active during this extremely important election year; and retaining current members and recruiting new members to keep the organization strong and lively.

“Last year, we had the best attended Legislative Reception in our history and we had a record number of legislators at our awards dinner in November,” said Gooden. “We are going to build on this momentum by getting our members to be at their legislator’s events, meetings and active with their campaigns. The people who are running for offi ce need to know who we are and that we are there to support them. Our legislators will know that we are ABC and that they can count on us. Please encourage your friends and employees to get engaged in the political system as well. Time spent supporting our candidates is critical but equally important is coming with a check in hand. We all need to budget now both personally and professionally to be able to write those checks.

“I’d like to close with a quote from Albert Einstein,” said Gooden.” ‘…When a group of individuals becomes a ‘we’, a harmonious whole, they have reached as high as humans can reach’. ABC is that we and we can do anything that we put our minds to.”

By Mark McMahon, Chairman, ABC Eastern Pennsylvania Chapter Chairman

ABC Eastern Pennsylvania Chapter Turns 50 in ‘12 It’s an understatement to say that a lot has changed in the last 50 years. Since

1962 the following things have become an expected part of our culture: personal computers, GPS, digital music, electronic ignitions, ATMs, fi ber optics, PV solar energy and many more acronyms than I can list.

The one thing that hasn’t changed in the last 50 years is Associated Builders and Contractors Eastern Pennsylvania Chapter’s (ABC) commitment to protecting contractors’ rights to conduct business without intimidation or retaliation because of labor affi liation. In 1962, a small group of electrical contractors was harassed for trying to bid on public work in the Philadelphia area. Harassment wasn’t acceptable then and it’s not acceptable in 2012. ABC provides contractors the support and re-sources they need to protect their businesses, their employees and their customers from obstacles such as this.

It is an honor to lead this chapter of ABC as we celebrate our golden anniversary. We are a strong, active chapter with more than 500 members and offi ces in East Norriton and Allentown as well as a state-of-the-art training center in Kulpsville. Our members are proud to have constructed churches, hospitals, offi ces, roadways, entertainment centers, retail outlets, schools and much more which have enhanced the American way of life. This current economy is challenging our nation and more specifi cally our industry. However ABC members, as has been our standard, remain committed to quality, safety, value and training.

If you believe in our mission, I invite you to one of our upcoming networking or educational events to learn more about ABC and its benefi ts. Please contact Jeff Zeh at 610-279-6666 or visit abceastpa.org for more information.

Offering enhanced hospitality services for the visitors of Philadelphia

ARC Properties Inc. announces the planning

of Franklin Place in Center City Philadelphia

D irectly across from the National Constitution Center and the Liberty

Bell at the base of the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philadel-phia’s Old City neighborhood stands Franklin Place. The Project is an adaptive re-use and redevelopment of 401 Race St. the former Pincus Broth-ers Maxwell Building. This mixed-use Project includes a 150 room hotel, 50,000 s/f of retail and restaurant space, 65 residential homes and a 200-space parking facility. Franklin Place has been care-fully designed with surround-ing structures in mind while simultaneously serving as a landmark entryway into the City of Philadelphia. Franklin Place comple-

ments nearby landmarks that Philadelphia is famous for such as the historic sites of Independence Mall, the National Constitution Center, and the neighborhood of Old City. The mixed-use Project will strengthen tourism in the area by offering enhanced hospitality services to visitors of Philadelphia, including hotel rooms, restaurants, en-tertainment venues, and much needed parking. Franklin Place’s premium location and fi ve-star amenities also serve Philadelphia’s many business travelers.The Franklin Place rede-

velopment centers on the well-known Pincus Brothers

Maxwell Building and the adjacent land comprising the entire north block of 400 Race St. The higher levels of Frank-lin Place offer breathtaking views – ranging from the Lib-erty Bell to the Philadelphia City Skyline to the Delaware River. The Project is anchored by a 150 all-suite Hotel built on top of the existing 3-story steel structure on the 5th Street side. The existing building will house 36,000 s/f of retail on the fi rst fl oor. The second and third fl oors include a combination of

parking spaces and approxi-mately 60,000 s/f of offi ce or live/work space. The existing building is

comprised of two main com-ponents. The 5th street side is constructed of concrete, and sits adjacent to the steel build-ing on 4th Street. The existing 3-story steel building once contained an additional 9-story candy factory before its con-version to the 3-story Pincus Brothers Maxwell Building. The redevelopment plan calls for the Hotel to be built on top

of the steel building on the 5th

street side where the candy tower once stood. The Hotel has the structural capacity for vertical development, which will be further separated by a transition level. The inclusion of a carefully

designed transition fl oor yields several design and develop-ment options. The transition fl oor’s design does not require column lines of the new vertical component to align with those of the existing facility. This feature allows for additional rooftop views overlooking the City as well as staggered or cantilevered structural design alternatives. The steel building will house ground fl oor retail with parking and residential homes on the 2nd and 3rd fl oors

SHOPPING CENTERS PROJECT OF THE MONTH

and additional parking and storage on the basement level. The Project will embody the spirit of sustainable design using modern methods for

its design, construction, and operation.A new residential tower

featuring approximately 55 one-and two-bedroom homes will be built on the 4th Street side in Phase II of the Proj-ect. The residential tower will share several of the key amenities with the rest of the Project including, several roof top gardens around an in ground pool, green roofs, fi re pits, running/walking tracks and a roof top restaurant and catering facility overlooking the dynamic views of the City of Philadelphia.ARC Properties, Inc. was

formed 25 years ago by Robert J. Ambrosi and Marc Perel and has been responsible for the acquisition and development of more than 200 properties with an aggregate value in excess of $2 billion. ■

GAINESVILLE, VA — Calkain Companies, has procured the sale of a two tenant building occupied by 7-11 and a local veterinary practice in Gainesville, VA.

Jeff Bogart of Calkain Companies represented the seller in the transaction. “We have seen an increase in buyer interest for invest-ment assets over the past nine months, both from out-of-state and in-state inves-tors, because of accessible credit and low inventories,” Bogart stated. “Since Janu-ary 2010, credit income prop-erties have become increas-ingly harder to fi nd in the DC-MSA, thus, compressing cap rates as much as 175 basis points over the last two years. This particular asset was a two tenant NN lease building located in the Heritage Hunt Retail devel-opment in Gainesville, VA” Bogart added.

The buyer was a local in-vestor and the seller was Buchanan Partners. ■

WP Realty, Inc. Metro Commercial Real Estate, Inc.

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF 2011: With improved tenant

fundamentals, and increases in both capital accessibility &

leasing volume, the U.S. Commercial Real Estate market

saw signs of improvement in 2011, with sales totaling $291B,

a 32% increase from 2010. Many investors fi nished 2011

seeking quality assets in traditionally strong MSAs. We are

a prime example of this, with our $86.5mm acquisition of the New England

Shaw’s Supermarket portfolio. This 8 property portfolio offered an enticing

mix of strong market fundamentals and value-add components.

SHORT STATEMENT ON 2012 OUTLOOK: In the Northeast and

Mid-Atlantic regions, we anticipate that investors will continue to fl ock to

high-quality assets, further fueling cap rate compression for core assets.

While values for these core assets may be trending upward, we go into 2012

with a cautious optimism, fully aware that several global economic issues,

including the Sovereign debt crisis in Europe and worldwide unemploy-

ment, will continue to affect the speed of recovery in the US. ■

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF 2011: We saw retailers beginning

to return to executing their expansion plans, after the previ-

ous years were mostly spent by them focused on straighten-

ing out internal issues. In our representation of 65+ national

and regional retailers, we witnessed a more vibrant expansion,

especially into established, mature trade areas. Through our National Ac-

counts division, we also saw other markets begin to thaw. There continued

to be very scarce new-construction projects, as most transactions were

completed in existing or heavily re-imagined properties.

SHORT STATEMENT ON 2012 OUTLOOK: So far, the year is off

to a strong start, catapulting off what we began in 2011 and even prior.

More and more vacancies are being absorbed by expanding retailers, and

developers are even beginning to consider new construction again, if market

rents can support it. ■

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF 2011: While 2011 was still a

slower market than past years, due to the economy, we started

to see change towards the end of the year that indicates an

upward turn around in 2012. Phones were ringing and deals

were being signed, a welcomed change from the harsh eco-

nomic climate of the past few years. We saw expanded franchise growth

and an increased interest from investors to invest in new business oppor-

tunities. We also saw a growing interest on the part of shopping center

owners to buy and sell properties and to expand their real estate holdings

portfolio. Overall, 2011 showed promising signs for 2012.

SHORT STATEMENT ON 2012 OUTLOOK: If the activity at the end

of 2011 is any indication, the commercial real estate market will likely

rebound and 2012 will see prosperous growth. ■

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF 2011: 2011 was an extremely

successful year for Taylor Long Properties, with a 40% in-

crease in leased and sold square footage, which represents

31% more transactions than 2010. Our success, based on

our expertise and professionalism, has allowed us to sign

21 new listing agreements since the beginning of 2011, which represents

more than 3 million square feet of gross leasable area. Our team is highly

focused on our clients’ needs and objectives, which explains the confi dence

that Landlords and Tenants place in us Properties.

SHORT STATEMENT ON 2012 OUTLOOK: We think that 2012 will be

another record-breaking year for Taylor Long Properties. Sales and leasing

activity continue to grow steadily with both Landlords and Tenants having

optimistic attitudes about the retail business. ■

MARCUS & MILLICHAP

Marcus & Millichap

Overview of 2011: 2011 was a year that saw accelerated velocity in both single tenant net lease sales and in shopping center sales. Demand for single tenant properties reached prerecession levels as supply was constrained by a decreasing expansion by many retailers, led by the two top drug store chains, Walgreens and CVS/pharmacy. Demand was not only driven by the 1031 exchange market, but by investors fl eeing non-real estate fi xed debt instruments like bonds for the higher returns of the real estate world.

Cap rates fell over the course of the year by 50-75 basis points due not only to demand, but the plentiful availability of debt at historically low interest rates. In addition, equity that had been on the sidelines during the recession came into the market looking for deals and returns rather continue to sit in accounts earning one to two percent. By the end of the year, cap rates on investment grade drug stores like CVS and Walgreens had dropped to a range of 6.25 to 6.75 percent. Investment grade bank pad properties with rent bumps during the base lease term in some cases were below 6.00 percent, as were corporate fast food properties. Convenience stores, when available, also commanded very good cap rates.

2012 Outlook: This trend has continued into the early stages of 2012 as demand heated up about two weeks into the new year after a brief holiday lull. It is an excellent time for owners of single tenant net lease properties to sell if that is a strategy that is timely for them. Of course, fi nancing, being plentiful and cheap, is an alternative as non-recourse debt is again available for good properties with credit, after being very diffi cult to obtain over the last three years.

Of course, market size and geography are still important to investors. The Northeast Corridor from Washington, D.C. to Boston is again the preferred territory for many investors, especially institutional ones. Cap rates there tend to be in the lower end of the range quoted above. Sunbelt locations favored earlier in the decade no longer command the level of interest they once did. That said, the Raleigh-Durham, Charleston, SC, and South Florida areas are still attractive to many investors. As always, California also commands among the lowest cap rates in the country.

With the Federal Reserve keeping rates down and continued low returns in other investment vehicles, the Taylor-Zang-Munley Group at Marcus & Millichap predicts 2012 will be another strong year in the single tenant net lease market. As we are in the market daily, we know where cap rates are on an almost weekly basis.

The multi-tenant shopping center market has also seen an increase in velocity, for some of the same reasons as single tenant, but for other factors. Demand has increased. We have worked through the decrease in demand for retail space and the loss of retailers such as Circuit City, Linens N Things, and Borders. Vacancy rates in the Northeast have begun to decrease and rents are stabilizing. Grocery anchored centers are most in demand as institutional investors seek the safety of “necessity retail.” This somewhat herd like mentality is allowing some private high net worth equity groups to fi nd deals that institutions skip over, such as well located non-anchored retail strips, centers in secondary and tertiary markets at higher cap rates, and even power centers that are the trophy asset within a smaller market.

In addition to these factors is the fact that more lender owned or controlled products are coming to market as pretend and extend properties are no longer being extended, and some have leased up to a degree since lender takeover of them, making them more viable in the market. In addition, we are seeing more centers come on the market from private owners who are selling with debt in place to assume on properties where 10 year debt was placed from 2003 to 2005, coming due in the next few years. These transactions typically take longer due to the assumption component. With new construction still virtually nonexistent, and demand strong, more deals with a debt in place will come on the market in 2012 and buyers will simply have to deal with the debt if they want to buy.

The Taylor-Zang-Munley Group at Marcus & Millichap sees 2012 as a year of increasing velocity in the multi-tenant sector. However, cap rates will be more stable and compress less than in the single tenant market due to debt assumption issues, market size and geography, and the quality of the anchor tenants. Only trophy like grocery anchored centers in major markets will see a decrease in cap rates. ■

REMCO REALTY

Remco Realty

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF 2011: 2011 We are pleased to

announce that 2011 was a banner year for us. In addition to

Remco obtaining its Pennsylvania Brokers license in 2011, it

was a year that provided us with the most listings obtained,

the highest volume of completed transactions, along with the

highest dollar volume of gross commissions received since

our April 2008 inception. A sample of those completed trans-

actions include the leasing of 3,700 s/f to Enterprise Car Rental in Lodi,

the leasing of 4,000 s/f to Sherwin Williams in East Hanover, the leasing

of 6,300 s/f to Strauss Auto in Toms River, and the leasing of 6,500 s/f to

Napa Auto Parts in Bridgewater.

SHORT STATEMENT ON 2012 OUTLOOK: With both consumer and

investor confi dence on the rise, we enter 2012 on a very positive note. In

mid-December, Remco was awarded the marketing assignment to sell or

lease a 7,000 s/f free-standing building in Middlesex, formerly occupied

by Block Buster video, and within 30 days, Remco also secured the “all

cash” buyer. Although this is an election year, we remain very optimistic

regarding the overall economy, and the continued demand for retail real

estate, and as such, we just doubled the size of our offi ces. Remco is in an

expansion mode, and we are actively seeking full time sales associates who

are licensed in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. ■

KW Commercial- The James Balliet Commercial Group

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF 2011: The Lehigh Valley retail/

offi ce real estate markets held up well versus the national

averages. Leasing activity was strong and the sale of prop-

erty picked up signifi cantly from 2010 totals. Rental rates

will increase incrementally while vacancy rates decrease and consumer

confi dence and product demand continues to increase.

SHORT STATEMENT ON 2012 OUTLOOK: New construction and

proposed developments will begin to increase in late 2012 into 2013. With

that said we also expect current property owners will begin focusing on

renovation and improvements of existing shopping centers and spaces to

compete against the newer projects. ■

HAMILTON, NJ — Hartz Mountain Industries has begun producing power at its Hartz Solar Hamilton facil-ity, an 8.5 Megawatt (MW) ground-based solar array in Hamilton, NJ.

Completed in December of 2011, the fi rst ground based solar array by the developer is comprised of over 30,000 solar modules, making it one of the largest solar power sys-tems delivering power in New Jersey and solidifying Hartz Mountain’s position as a lead-ing solar power producer in the state.

“The impetus for Hartz to develop the ground array was the economic and envi-ronmental benefi ts that stem from the investment in solar energy, including jobs, re-duced air pollution, and long term energy security ” said Emanuel Stern, president and COO of Hartz Mountain Industries, Inc. “I applaud the Christie Administration and the New Jersey Legislature for continuing to make New Jersey a national leader in solar energy.”

The ground array is located in Hamilton Township near the intersection of the New

Jersey Turnpike and I-195. The plot of land is sixty-fi ve acres of land previous zoned for residential development, thirty-four of which is used for solar. This ground array, combined with an existing roof-top solar portfolio atop 13 buildings, brings Hartz’s total installed solar generat-ing capacity to 17 MW.

Hartz Mountain contracted with Madison, WI based RMT, Inc. to design and construct the array. RMT is a nationally recognized leader in the en-gineering and construction of renewable energy facilities.

The ground array project was fi nanced by TD Bank.

The Hartz Solar Hamilton facility comes on line fol-lowing its standard-setting

memorandum of understand-ing (MOU) with Environmen-tal Protection Agency (EPA) to reduce its carbon foot-print. The ground solar array should allow Hartz Mountain to nearly double the green-house gas emissions savings it has already achieved. Ac-cording to EPA, in 2011, Hartz reduced greenhouse gases by 12,574 MTCO2e (metric ton carbon dioxide equivalent). In layman’s terms, that’s a reduction equivalent to tak-ing 2,466 vehicles off the road per year or the carbon dioxide reduction equivalent to more than 1.4 million gallons of gas. ■

he commercial and resi-dential building sector consumes 49 percent

of all energy produced in the United States, and as a result, many build-ing owners in states like New Jersey and Pennsyl-vania have begun to take advantage of generous federal and state fi nancial incentives to build commercial-scale solar systems to offset some of their electricity costs.

These fi nancial incentives, however, are not long-term solutions, and more needs to be done to reduce the non-sub-sidized cost of solar. Though the price of solar has dropped signifi cantly due to decreases in the prices of PV modules, it is important for the solar industry to continue to invest in balance-of-system improve-ments that address the up-front and system lifetime costs of solar.

Commercial-scale solar is an important driver of growth in the solar market because it reduces operating and man-agement expenses for building owners and tenants. Thus, technologies that make com-

By Wendy Arienzo, ArrayPower

Making solar more accessible to commercial property owners

mercial-scale solar more af-fordable are of great benefi t to the real estate community.

The inverter – the compo-nent that converts the DC pow-er produced by the PV module into grid-ready AC power – is a portion of the solar system that can signifi cantly affect system performance and cost. Tradi-tionally, there are three types of inverters: central, string and microinverters. Central and string inverters are most commonly used for commer-cial-scale solar systems, but they are not reliable or effi cient at harvesting the energy from the system. Microinverters are much more effi cient at harvest-ing solar energy, but they are prohibitively expensive for the larger systems that commer-cial buildings use.

ArrayPower has developed an inverter technology that addresses this performance-cost nexus, maximizing energy harvest at a price competitive with string inverters. Array-Power partners with solar module manufacturers to in-tegrate each of ArrayPower’s Sequenced Inverters with the PV module during the manu-facturing process in a plug-in format, eliminating danger-ous and diffi cult wiring and improving system installation and maintenance costs and

safety. This technology allows the Sequenced Inverter to pro-vide the only fully integrated system that delivers commer-cial-grade, three-phase AC power, useable at any commer-cial or industrial facility.

Important to building own-ers and tenants, the Sequenced Inverter’s high performance and deep level of integration offer signifi cant lifetime sys-tem cost savings. Specifi cally, this technology reduces the cost of commercial solar by 35 cents per watt, or more than 10 percent, by lowering capital costs, simplifying installation and increasing energy harvest. By installing systems that use the Sequenced Inverter tech-nology, building owners will be able to offer tenants a cut-rate electricity bill for less capital cost, and building tenants will be able to reap the benefi ts of distributed solar more easily.

It is important that busi-nesses and building own-ers move toward greener, more sustainable business practices, and by offering commercial-scale solar at a more affordable price, the Se-quenced Inverter will play an important part in helping the commercial real estate sector achieve that goal.

GREEN BUILDINGS SPOTLIGHT

SUSTAINABLE DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION

hile people tend to focus on the carbon that cars emit, the

truth is that most of the carbon d i -oxide in our atmosphere comes from b u i l d i n g s – more like-ly old ones, with little in-sulation, outdated mechanical systems and single-glazed win-dows. The Eastern seaboard is home to the bulk of these old buildings in a climate where buildings must work harder to keep occupants comfortable than in other, more temperate population centers.

Baltimore already knows the value of green – the Bal-timore City Green Building Standards (BCGS) are an innovative effort to protect and restore Baltimore’s water supply, reduce its urban heat island effect, and encourage alternative transportation. These standards largely apply to newly constructed or exten-sively modifi ed nonresidential or multi-family residential buildings. But there are many old buildings in Baltimore, and building owners should not forget that even simple system upgrades can make a huge dif-ference for the environment and their bottom lines.

Old and ineffi cient buildings can and should be retrofi tted to be more energy efficient – not just for environmental reasons but because it makes sound economic sense. Accord-ing to the United States Green Building Council (USGBC), buildings that feature high performance systems can re-duce water usage by 40 percent and can cut energy use in half. The resulting reductions in wa-ter and energy bills go directly to the owner’s bottom line. The USGBC estimates owners who “green” their buildings can anticipate an 8-9 percent decrease in operating costs. Baltimore County also offers a tax credit for buildings that attain LEED certifi cation.

Bringing buildings into the 21st Century

Skanska USA’s Fraser Kadera on Green Retrofi tsW Existing buildings already

have a “carbon advantage.” The energy required to manu-facture their materials and systems and to construct them has already been spent. Even new buildings designed with sustainability in mind fill landfills with the debris of the old buildings they replace. In addition, new buildings consume energy and produce carbon during the fabrication, shipping and construction process.

In the U.S., green retrofi ts have grown from two percent of the total construction mar-ket in 2008 to an estimated 30 percent in 2010. At Skanska, we have realized the benefi ts of retrofi tting fi rst hand. Two years ago, we moved into our fl agship offi ce at the Empire State Building in New York City, retrofitting our tenant space to achieve LEED Plati-num certifi cation, reducing our electricity costs by 57 percent compared to our former offi ce in a standard urban building. The Empire State Building fi t-out is projected to save us roughly half a million dollars in electric costs over the life of its 15-year lease. By changing the cost argument from initial costs to lifecycle value, we were able to do what’s good for the environment and what’s good for our business.

For those who are unable to commit to a full retrofi t, there are ways to make changes in relatively easy and inexpen-sive ways. As we all know, wa-ter conservation is an issue in Baltimore. Even simple green retrofi ts and installations can do a lot to save water. Dual-fl ush toilets, low-fl ow fi xtures, and waterless urinals are all relatively easy and inexpen-sive steps that cut down sig-nifi cantly on water usage.

You don’t need a new build-ing to realize the benefi ts of sustainability. Most major building systems have a use-ful life of 25 to 35 years. When systems are about to fail, they need to replaced anyway. This is the time to invest a little

more in thoughtful, cost effec-tive retrofi ts bringing build-ings into the 21st Century for a relatively small incremental cost. Thoughtful “green” reno-vation makes good business sense.

Fraser Kadera, MBA, Certifi ed Business Energy Professional, LEED GA, is a regional executive of integrated solutions for Skanska USA in Rockville, MD.

In other Skanska news, Russ Alcorn PE, DBIA has been pro-moted to senior vice president and national director.

In his new role, Alcorn will

utilize his 34 years of experi-ence in federal construction to assist in the procurement and execution of Skanska’s federal construction projects across the United States.

“Over the past year, Russ

has proven to be an invaluable asset, successfully identifying best practices and pursuing op-portunities for Skanska,” said Bill Brennan, co-chief operat-ing offi cer and executive spon-sor of the Federal Center of Excellence. “Russ understands how to meet the magnitude of needs federal clients bring to the table, and we look forward to his future contributions.”

During the past year, Alcorn

served as a vice president help-ing identify federal pursuits, reviewing federal solicitations, and assisting with proposals and presentations to federal agencies in addition to pro-viding operational support to ongoing projects. Prior to this position, Alcorn worked as an operations manager for Hensel Phelps Construction Co. where he oversaw major federal con-struction projects.

Throughout his long and

successful construction career, Alcorn has grown his portfolio to include work on military bases, airports, courthouses, correctional facilities, hospi-tals, resorts and industrial plants. ■

FLORENCE BLOCK

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

After years of development, a new tool is on the way to help provide clear green build-ing guidance to lawmakers, regulators, green building advocates, and imitators alike; the International Green Construction Code (“IGCC”). Now, a new set of standards intended to facilitate and accelerate the construction of green buildings in the United States has been established with the help of some of our partner groups, the International Code Council (“ICC”), the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (“ASHRAE”), and the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (“IES”).

The IGCC is a product of two national movements to create enforceable green building codes in the U.S.: one, by the ICC and ASHRAE, which have been at the forefront of trying to develop an industry standard with green build-ing for decades, and one by the US Green Building Council which has been involved in a similar effort centered around the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“LEED”) rating system.

USGBC-NJ Chapter’s advocacy efforts in Trenton were always challenged by a lack of uniformity when it came to defi ning a green building or a “high performance” building as it is referred to in legislation. Green building policies in New Jersey vary from town to town and from city to city. Even legislation setting green building policy varies from bill to bill. For this reason, the USGBC-NJ’s advocacy committee has been working with the Department of Community Affairs and lawmakers in Trenton to adopt the IGCC in the Garden State.

USGBC-NJ’s ultimate goal in advocating New Jersey to adopt the IGCC is that it will provide a uniform set of green building guidelines in a streamlined, systematic manner that also fi ts the individual needs of a city or municipality. There is no doubt that we defi nitely need the IGCC in New Jersey to provide an objective voice to defi ning what is and what isn’t considered a legitimate green building practice. Just like with the LEED rating systems, the IGCC code is meant to bring greater inclusivity and fl exibility to green building.

Stay tuned for more developments and updates and feel free to reach out to our staff.
