The Future Community Landscape from Greenscape
Greenscape headquarters will plant its roots in Detroit

DETROIT, MI (July 17, 2016).

            Greenscape Inc. is officially relocating its corporate headquarters to Detroit. The energy efficient company will settle its roots in a brand new facility in downtown Detroit as part of the city’s redevelopment effort.

            The $150 million building will be the largest of its kind in the U.S. to be LEED-certified. Architect on the project is Weber and Associates, with contracting by Rudolph and Sletten.  The building will take an estimated 18-months to complete.

            The Minneapolis Redevelopment Agency will provide financing, and an additional $5 million to landscape and improve surrounding areas.

            Greenscape officials say the new headquarters is the “corner stone of the downtown revival.”

  1. Fantastic job Troy! News release writing and template is good! Only thing missing is a boilerplate! Really creative headline! Great job on the fact sheet as well! I like that you included the company logo in both!

    1. Hi Amy,

      Boilerplate! Totally forgot that, silly me. Thank you for pointing that out. I probably should have set more time aside to review and edit this post.
