First Large-scale 'Living Building' to be Constructed

Posted

The Oregon Sustainability Center, which is being called the first large-scale "living building," is projected to have a zero carbon footprint.

The 12-story building, to be built in Portland, will generate its own energy on-site using solar photovoltaics and goethermal energy. The building is adjacent to Portland State University and will host sustainability-related classes.
