Engineering News-Record Ranks Top 100 Green Design Firms

Financial data and standards provide objective comparison of firms'
sustainable design experience

NEW YORK, June 24 /PRNewswire/ -- McGraw-Hill Construction's Engineering
News-Record (ENR) has published its first-ever Top Green Design Firms survey.
Companies are ranked based on 2007 design revenue from projects registered
with or certified by third-party ratings groups under objective environmental
or sustainable design standards, such as the Green Building Initiative or the
U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) standards.
The market for sustainable design has passed a tipping point and is
rapidly becoming mainstream. ENR's Top Green Design Firms bypasses
"green-washing" hype to objectively measure the market based on standards and
2007 financial data. Cumulatively, the firms on this list generated $1.74
billion in revenue from green projects in 2007: $1.62 billion in the U.S., and
$121.2 million abroad.
