    I'd love to have your team out to the Winter Flower Show and Holiday Garden at Phipps Conservatory to check it out.

    Thank you for your kind words about Phipps Center for Sustainable Landscapes, The CSL is not the only building in the world to achieve the Living Building Challenge, more rigorous than Platinum LEED as you suggested, but it is the first in the world to achieve all four of the highest and most rigorous green building certifications: LEED Platinum, WELL Platinum (healthy to live/work in), Sustainable SITES (landscape) and the Living Building Challenge. It functions as efficiently as a flower, as it is net zero water and net zero energy. We congratulate PNC for being so very progressive in its green building approach and believe that it is the only LEED Platinum multi-use high rise in the world. PNC's accomplishment will put Pittsburgh on the map for leading sustainability initiatives once again!
