The center has several sustainability features that consider its environmental and economic impacts, including: redevelopment of a former industrial railroad yard; innovative underground systems that use sand to filter stormwater runoff before it goes into the Cape Fear River; a white roof that reflects the sun and reduces heat gain; water efficient landscaping; special glass that limits heating and cooling loss; plumbing fixtures that use about half the amount of water of traditional fixtures; and Efficient lighting and HVAC systems. Along with LEED Silver certification, the Center received the Engineering Excellence Companies of NC award. The Center received the award for the overall design of the site, which is specially designed to protect the riverfront ecosystem and minimize the environmental impact while also rehabilitating a former industrial site.
