Stuart Senior, managing partner of Gleeds Nottingham and who formed and manages its Indian operations, said of the project: 鈥淭his development aspires to be among the most sustainable in the world. Cutting-edge sustainability features appear throughout the masterplan and building design to ensure that energy requirements are minimised and water is conserved.
鈥淕odrej Properties has applied to have Godrej One certified as LEED-Platinum, which is globally recognised as the highest rating of sustainable design.鈥
