Center for Sustainable Landscapes

Title: Center for Sustainable Landscapes
Description: First Place Winner of the Sustainability Photo Contest

"This inspiring image shows the Center for Sustainable Landscapes (CSL) at PHIPPS Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. Not only does this picture show the beauty that nature provides for the built environment, but the building itself is a wonderful example of what success in sustainable development looks like. The CSL has achieved an abundance of green certifications including LEED Platinum, SITES Platinum, WELL Building Platinum, BREEAM Outstanding In-Use Building, etc. The building is completely net-zero and prioritizes sustainable practices such as renewable energy and rainwater collection. This photo perfectly exemplifies how sustainability can be represented in the urban landscape." Taken by Kelsey Frantz. Submitted to the RESTORExchange Sustainability Photo Contest.
