June 5, 2008 · Source: National Park Service

Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park will celebrate its tenth anniversary in the summer of 2008 with the opening of a new building and a new permanent exhibit. The Forest Center, a classroom and meeting space, is constructed almost entirely with wood harvested from the park’s Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)-certified Mount Tom forest. The Forest Center is being considered for a Gold Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification by the U.S. Green Building Council, one of the highest ratings of any building in the national park system and the State of Vermont.
