STOP #1: Boston University Center of Computing & Data Sciences - LEED Platinum

At 19 stories, this LEED Platinum and award-winning iconic building—housing the Faculty of Computing & Data Sciences, the Mathematics & Statistics Department, Computer Science program, BU Spark! and the Rafik B. Hariri Institute for Computing and Computational Science & Engineering—is the largest fossil-fuel-free building in Boston, relying on deep wells to harness the thermal capacity of the earth for heating and cooling and eliminate the need to connect the building to a gas line.
