LOS ANGELES, September 11, 2014 /3BL Media/ — AECOM Technology Corporation announced today that it is ranked as the #3 green design firm by Engineering News-Record (ENR) magazine, a McGraw-Hill publication that recently released its annual list of the top 100 green building design firms.

In addition to being named a top green design firm, AECOM continued its strong annual showing in ENR's green market sector listing, ranking #2 in the Commercial Offices, Government Offices and Retail sectors, and #4 in Educational Facilities.
