Simon Sustainability Report 2020-2021

GREENCERTIFICATIONS

The Shops at Crystals in Las Vegas is one of the first centers in the Simon portfolio to have achieved a double certification: an IREM ® Certified Sustainable Property certification for achieving green standards, and the WELL Health-Safety Rating ® for meeting health and well-being standards. The IREM ® Certified Sustainable Property certification is a mark of distinction that recognizes continual high sustainable perfor- mance and embedding resource efficiency measures. Many green investments have been made at the center including cool roofing, additional recycling resources, high-efficiency water fixtures, and the use of sustainable products.

Since its development 10 years ago, the center has sought to create more green awareness and inspire guests with a flower garden, a hanging garden, electrical charging stations for EVs, and a high indoor air quality policy.

Simon has committed to increase the number of its centers with a green building certificate in the coming years.

In addition to various art installations, shoppers also have the exclusive opportunity to enjoy multiple water features and attractions found within The Shops at Crystals.
