GREENBELT, Md., Feb. 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- What does it take to turn silver into gold? For NASA scientists, the answer is "two protons." For Manhattan Construction Company in Washington, it is creative green building solutions which have resulted in the Exploration Sciences Building project becoming the first at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center to receive LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). The project also earned an additional LEED credit for "Exemplary Performance" in recognition for recycling of construction materials, said Evans.
