Excellence in ENERGY STAR Promotion
Forest City Stapleton
Denver, Colorado

Forest City Stapleton is the master developer of Stapleton, the largest urban redevelopment project in the nation. Built on the former 4,700 acre site of the Stapleton International Airport, Stapleton is a master-planned community of 12,000 homes and apartments. It also includes 13 million square feet of retail and commercial development and some 1,100 acres of parks and open space. Forest City has undertaken an impressive set of activities to make this redevelopment project a leading example of energy efficiency. Key achievements include:

  • Making 100 percent of its new homes ENERGY STAR.
  • Marketing ENERGY STAR qualified homes aggressively through EPA's New Homes Outreach Partnership.
  • Prominently featuring ENERGY STAR on its Visitor Center and Web site; in magazines, model displays, shopping mall displays, direct mail advertising; and in newspaper and radio ads.
  • Delivering more than 1,000 ENERGY STAR qualified homes in 2007 by coordinating activities across 12 builders in the Forest City development and providing consistent, efficient sales and technical training for these builders, their subcontractors, and their sales staff.
