Shorenstein Properties, LLC (“Shorenstein”), an owner and operator of high-quality office, residential and mixed-use properties across the U.S., today announced that 22 Shorenstein properties have received the WELL Health-Safety Rating through the International WELL Building Institute (“IWBI”).
The WELL Health-Safety Rating is an evidence-based, third-party verified rating focused on the effectiveness of a building’s or facility’s operational policies, maintenance protocols, stakeholder engagement practices and emergency plans in place in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The rating system is designed to empower owners and operators to take the necessary steps to prioritize the health and safety of their staff, visitors and other stakeholders.
“At all Shorenstein properties, we are committed to fostering an environment that prioritizes the well-being of everyone within our community, and this recognition showcases our best-in-class property management team’s efforts to go above and beyond to create and maintain healthy environments,” said Mei Tsuruta, Sustainability Manager at Shorenstein. “We are pleased that all 22 properties that applied for the WELL Health-Safety Rating this year achieved it. We are committed to participating in the IWBI’s rating program annually as we advance this work across our properties to meet the needs of today’s tenants and residents alike in the post-COVID-19 environment.”

This review has resulted in the implementation of best-in-class practices across these properties, including plans for reduction in respiratory particle exposure as well as Legionella management. Shorenstein has participated in the WELL Health-Safety Rating program since 2021 and is committed to ongoing participating in this rating program.
