The
Foundation of Innsbrook's
Green Vision As
cited in Innsbrook's original
marketing materials and
protective
covenants, "Distinctive
architecture
is enhanced by natural,
open
areas highlighted by
extensive landscaping.
Forty percent of each
site must remain natural.
Sites are complimented
by views of the park's
three lakes which total
over
30 acres."
Today,
Innsbrook continues to set
the standard, as a master-planned,
850-acre, mixed-use development
of which 340 acres is dedicated
exclusively to green open
space
including three miles of jogging
and walking trails and three
major lakes. This is the founding
vision of Innsbrook.
Back
in 1982, when Innsbrook proffered
with
Henrico County, Innsbrook
had
established an unheard
of
40 percent green open space within
developed area, and continues
to
honor that standard. This
far
exceeds the U.S.
Green
Building Council's current
LEED
open
space
requirements for new
construction
and major renovations
in
the
United
States.
Innsbrook's
green vision can be seen everywhere
- the environment is assimilated
into the community. With three
lakes, three miles of jogging
and bike trails winding through
the landscape of carefully
designed office space, Innsbrook
has an open policy of inviting
its resident companies, employees
and their families to fish,
picnic, participate in group
activities or just relax and
enjoy the scenery.
