City of Lauderhill begins Construction on 1st LEED Silver Certified City Hall in Florida

Fort Lauderdale, FL – Work is now in progress on the first LEED Silver Certified City Hall in Florida. The City of Lauderhill began planning the new building after Hurricane Wilma destroyed the old structure in 2005 and it was discovered the cost of repairs was about the same as an entirely new facility that could better meet the needs of the City.

The new four-floor 42,500-square foot building, which will house City administration and services offices, is designed in the old “Florida tropical style” and reflects the diversity of the Lauderhill community. The total construction cost is $12.8 million.
