Embassy of the United States (future site)

Situated on an 8.5-acre site, the multi-building complex will include a chancery, compound access controls, and Marine security guard quarters. When completed, the new complex will provide approximately 300 embassy employees with a state-of-the-art workspace.

The new facility will incorporate numerous sustainable features, including lights that automatically dim to take advantage of daylight, reduced water use plumbing fixtures, rain gardens, and indigenous and adapted plant species for reduced irrigation demand. The facility’s design targets Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) Silver Certification by the Green Building Certification Institute.

Completion of the $187 million project is scheduled for February 2015.
