LOS ANGELES – The landmark downtown Los Angeles office tower, FourFortyFour South Flower has become the first building to achieve the UL Verified Healthy Buildings verification for indoor air and water.

The verification, granted by the global safety science leader, UL, tests to verify excellent indoor air and water quality. UL's Verified Healthy Building program was developed over the past year and is backed by science and data. The program aims to address and prevent COVID-19 transmission within buildings.

The 48-story, 915,000-square-foot office tower, owned by Coretrust Capital Partners, recently underwent an extensive process to earn the UL Healthy Buildings mark. In order to achieve the verification, Coretrust Capital Partners hosted on-site visits and participated in a desktop audit, which included visual inspections, performance testing and recommendations for improved management of all building systems.
