  • Montecito Point will cater to businesses seeking lower energy and operating costs associated with "green building" and the convenience of being located in Montecito Town Center near U.S. Highway 95 and the northern Las Vegas Beltway, Lauth Vice President Mike Orr said.

    The building features a high-efficiency heating and cooling system, low-flow water fixtures, increased use of daylighting, recycled building materials and solar-reflective roofing to reduce the building's "heat island" effect, Orr said.

    Martin-Harris Construction is the general contractor. Occupancy is expected by the end of summer.
