Coming soon to Philadelphia: World’s second tallest building, LEED Gold Certified?
The historic city of Philadelphia hasn’t been known for its skyline in a long time. Now, some developers want to change that with a proposal to construct what would be the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere and the second-tallest building in the world.
The good news is the designers are planning on making the Philly landmark a green building, even hoping to earn an impressive gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED program. At least 2 gardens are even planned for rooftop spaces on the structure.
