The W.J. Baxter Perkinson, Jr Building opened in June 2009 as an addition to the VCU School of Dentistry. The building was awarded LEED Silver certification. It features light-colored roofing for 30 percent energy savings, low flow plumbing fixtures and low VOC or volatile organic compounds to improve indoor air quality. During construction of the $20 million addition, more than 75 percent of waste was recycled and 180 tons of masonry from the demolition used as fill.
