Story of a Green Building
Sustainable design requires a team approach. This includes architects, construction crew, engineers, developers and an engaged client. Over the last 12 months, staff at the National Building Museum documented a “green team” that created PNC Place, a building one block away from the White House that is aiming for Platinum LEED certification. Join curator Susan Piedmont-Palladino as she interviews a cast of characters that made this sustainable idea a reality.

Thank you for uploading. I am thinking of becoming an architect but I don’t
see any architecture in this building. Yes we should build the most
resource efficient building but it also should have a look of Identity and
esthetics. In this world of build it quick it’s hard to find Culture
landscaping infrastructure like the 19th and early 20th century had. If I
wear to design it I would have 3 principles, texture, interlocking masonry
and suitability.

I hate those hand dryers we have them at my university. They are so load
and not that warm!!

Good effort. Using less resources is one important aspect of
sustainability, but for me the building didn’t really represent many other
aspects of sustainability. This is my idea of a real sustainable building –

Architects true advocacy. I think its the best way to evaluate a quality
building or structure rather that all cosmetics and physical features…
way to go!

Seems that PNC has a penchant for sexy buildings… I live in Raleigh, NC
and they own the sexiest building here in downtown Raleigh called the PNC
Plaza.

Lend Lease has come out on top of a listing of property developers with the
highest volume of new sustainable floor space, according to a key green
building certification body.

Wait, you knocked down two Modernist buildings to make a Modernist
building? You can see the Eisenhower Executive Building (c.1888)
undergoing a retrofit in this video. I imagine it will still be standing
there when this PNC building is knocked down to build greener green
building.
