CENTRE

LOCATION: SEATTLE, US OWNED BY: BULLITT FOUNDATION FLOOR COUNT: 6 CONSTRUCTION COMPLETED: 2012

Opened on Earth Day 2013, the Bullitt Centre is designed to be the greenest commercial building in the world.

In its first 10 years, the building has generated 30 % more energy than it used from the solar panels on its roof, making it one of the largest net positive energy buildings in the world.

The building has no parking spaces, opting for bike racks instead, and has 26 geothermal wells that extend 120 metres into the ground to help stabilise its temperature. sustainabilitymag. com 25
