  • The Greening of Balboa Park: a Holistic, Sustainable and Replicable Model
    The Greening of Balboa Park: A Holistic, Sustainable and Replicable Model Julieann Summerford, Heschong Mahone Group, Inc. Risa Baron, San Diego Gas & Electric Company Anna Stark, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Rory Ruppert, Balboa Park Cultural Partnership David McGrew, Reuben H. Fleet Science Center ABSTRACT Developed for the 1915 Panama Exposition, Balboa Park now houses more than two dozen major museums, performing arts organizations, gardens, and the San Diego Zoo. Located on over 1200 acres of land with over a million square feet of property, Balboa Park is one of the nation’s largest urban cultural centers, attracting more than 6.5 million visitors annually from around the world. Through recent collaborative efforts, Balboa Park is poised to become a national model for cultural institutions and urban parks to achieve environmental sustainability. In 2008 the Balboa Park Cultural Partnership established a Park-wide sustainability program that includes 26 cultural institutions, the City of San Diego, San Diego Gas & Electric, and many other community stakeholders. Designed to be a replicable model, the Partnership’s goals are the creation and alignment of sustainable business practices; the identification of, and communication with, key internal and external stakeholders; and the education of visitors, employees, stakeholders, and the public. All sustainability initiatives and results are benchmarked, measured and quantified—a vital component for measuring its carbon footprint and aligning with the state’s plan for energy efficiency. The Balboa Park Cultural Partnership (BPCP) has become the first network of cultural institutions in the country to benchmark the energy performance of its buildings using the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager.
