Bay View consists of a constellation of three buildings, each featuring a lightweight canopy structure optimized for interior daylight and views and 20 acres of open space. This all-electric, water positive campus features a 4-megawatt solar dragonscale system and the largest geothermal pile system in North America. Bay View is on track to achieve LEED NC v4 Platinum Certification and LBC 3.1 Water Petal Certification.
