BXP Releases 2023 Sustainability & Impact Report
BXP’s sustainability & impact strategy aligns with our mission to envision, develop, and manage exceptional properties that enhance client success, strengthen communities, and advance opportunity. We believe that responsible real estate ownership, investment, and management contribute to progress on economic, social, and environmental issues. In 2023, we remained focused on measurable impacts.
BXP’s strategy contributes to our commercial success while protecting asset value and our distinction as a premier workplace developer, owner, and manager. Our long-term investment in our people, our properties, and our communities, and implementation of our sustainability program have prepared BXP to navigate an evolving landscape of sustainability objectives, transitionary changes, regulations, and disclosure requirements.
