CHICAGO, IL, April
20, 2015 – In celebration of Earth Day this year, Chicago-based RMK Management
Corp. is planting 10 six-foot Autumn Blaze maple trees throughout several of
its Chicago-area communities.
“As a company, we are dedicated to reducing our impact on
the environment, and we take steps each year to improve our eco footprint,”
said Anthony Rossi, Sr., president
of RMK Management Corp.
“From overseeing the
management of several LEED-certified buildings to upgrading properties with
fixtures to reduce energy and water consumption to providing our residents with
ways to live greener each day, we are committed to increasing our eco-friendly
initiatives.”
According to the Arbor Day Foundation, trees provide
numerous environmental benefits including reducing carbon dioxide and
increasing oxygen, reducing water runoff and erosion, providing habitat for
native birds and other species, and reducing the “heat island” effect.
“Surveys show how important environmentally-friendly
features are to renters, and this is a tangible way to both improve the
environment and add value to the properties,” noted Rossi.
MK is working with Clarence Davids and Co. landscaping to
plant the trees at The Residences of the Grove in Downers Grove; Bristol
Station in Naperville; Alara at Summerfield and Butterfield Oaks in Aurora;
Versailles on the Lakes and Regency Place in Oakbrook Terrace; Legacy at
Martin’s Point in Lombard; Legacy at Poplar Creek in Schaumburg; Williams
Reserve in Palatine; and Parc Huron in Chicago.
