DREAM OFFICE REIT (TSX: D.UN) (“Dream Office” or “the Trust”) today announced its five-star rating achievement in the 2021 Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) real estate assessment. Dream Office is proud to have achieved a score of 91/100, which is one of the best first year scores in the GRESB real estate assessment, placing it in the top 20% of the global benchmark. GRESB is an industry-driven organization that is committed to assessing the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance of real estate portfolios around the globe.
