EI CC | Project Tour: Stanley Center for Peace and Security

Who: IIDA Members and Friends

What: Join us for a project tour of the recently completed new home for The Stanley Center.

For decades, the former Musser public library building at 304 IowaAvenue served Muscatine residents as a hub of learning. The Stanley Center has invested more than $14 million in the community by acquiring, renovating, andtransforming the space into one of the most environmentally-friendly and ecologically-sustainable buildings in the world to serve as their new home.

With guidance from Neumann Monson Architects, it is to become the first suchstructure in the state of Iowa to be fully certified as a Living Building.

The Living Building Challenge is the world’s most rigorous proven-performance standard for buildings. To achieve certification, Living Buildings must generate all of their own energy and be self-sufficient, create a positive impact on the human and natural systems that interact with them, and connect occupants to light, air, food, nature, and community. In short, a Living Building is one that gives more than it takes.

Networking opportunity to follow the tour at a nearby location.
