Marriott Attains First LEED-Existing Building Certification

TownePlace Suites at Baltimore's BWI Airport composts all waste and uses low-flow plumbing fixtures.

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Hotel at BWI Airport has achieved LEED Gold for Existing Buildings, the first Marriott property to do so. “A central belief of green building is that our economic, environmental, and personal health is dramatically impacted by the places where we live, work, learn, shop, eat, and play,” says Chris Smith, COO of the U.S. Green Building Council. “The owners of the TownePlace Suites by Marriott Hotel at BWI Airport recognized this early on, and their foresight has resulted in Maryland’s first existing hotel to be certified LEED Gold.”

The hotel’s many sustainable initiatives include:

  • Green housekeeping
  • Composting all waste
  • Low-flow plumbing fixtures
  • Compact fluorescent lighting
  • A thorough recycling program
  • Gauges to sense rainfall so landscaping is watered only when necessary
  • Uniforms made from recycled plastic bottles
  • Educational kiosks
