We are proud to announce the LEED Gold certification of the historic Generali headquarters in Piazza Cordusio 2, in the heart of Milan. Both the building recently transformed into the magnificent luxury hotel ‘Palazzo Cordusio’ (a Gran Meliá Hotel, part of Meliá Hotels International), and the retail units hosting important international brands, are now LEED Gold certified.
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the premier global program for green buildings and communities.
We take immense pride in one of the most iconic buildings in Milan and in our European real estate portfolio achieving this certification: securing LEED Gold for a historical building is a particularly remarkable milestone, given the unique challenges involved and the meticulous planning and execution required.
The transformation of the building was a comprehensive project led by Generali Real Estate, with RINA Prime Value Services providing technical advisory support. The successful results that led to the certification include:
In addition to the LEED Gold certification, the building aligns with the most advanced EU taxonomy requirements and is on track to meet net zero targets by 2050.
This certification highlights the strong sustainability commitments upheld by Generali and Generali Real Estate throughout our properties. Join us in celebrating this remarkable achievement and our ongoing journey towards a more sustainable future!
