The U.S. branch of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Forest Products Solutions, a consulting firm based in Portland, Oregon, have given the first annual

Designing & Building with FSC Award to Goldman Sachs, a leading global investment banking, securities, and investment management firm, for its LEED® Certified building at 30 Hudson Street in Jersey City, New Jersey. All wood products used in the building, including millwork, wood trim, moldings, veneers, steamed sycamore panels, more than 700 gym lockers, and 970 interior doors, were certified according to FSC standards. “The use of FSC-certified wood became a focused sustainable design element for our project when we learned that in doing so we could support environmentally responsible forest management without having to compromise quality or aesthetics,” says Anthony Cammarata, managing director and head of corporate services and real estate Americas for Goldman Sachs. “We found that the use of FSC-certified wood was an excellent way for us to both build well and build responsibly.”
