The U.S. Green Building Council’s 2007 Greenbuild International Conference and Expo has moved from Los Angeles to Chicago. The dates for the conference, November 7–9, 2007, are unchanged. The eleventh-hour shift came after USGBC changed the date of the conference in January. Originally scheduled for October, the convention was rescheduled to November at the request of the L.A. Convention and Visitors Bureau, which wanted to accommodate another, larger, convention. When the bureau later asked for a second date change, USGBC opted to keep the dates but move to Chicago. “Chicago is welcoming us with open arms,” said USGBC’s Peter Templeton. “Chicago is not only one of the greenest cities in the country, Mayor Richard Daley has set a high bar for sustainable leadership and green building is a significant part of his commitment.” This will be among the first conferences in McCormick Place West, which is LEED-registered.
