MEC comes to Burlington

Awesome and exciting news! Burlington is getting its greenest building to date in the form of a 20,000 square foot Mountain Equipment Co-op.

Snippet from their release.

""Sustainability is a driving force at MEC, and the Burlington store will be developed to our rigorous green building standards," said Robinson.

MEC plans to construct its greenest building to date and to meet at least the gold standard of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) greenbuilding rating system."

The location is not ideal - but it is still accessible by walking and biking and is close enough to downtown to make transit an option.
