This is the Hearst Tower and the view from the 46 stories building near Columbus Circle. Hearst Tower is a \"green building\" the first building to receive a Gold LEED certified rating for \"core and shell and interiors\" in New York City. * Over 90% of structural steel contains recycled material * The cost of foreign-sourced materials represents less than 10% of the cost of the construction of the Tower itself. * The \"diagrid\" frame of the Tower contains roughly 20% less steel than would a conventional perimeter frame ‹ saving approximately 2,000 tons of steel. * The waterfall inside uses water collected as rainfall. * Each triangle in the diagrid is four stories tall, or 54 feet. * Daylight sensors to control lighting and reduce energy use The environmentally conscious approach began prior to construction. When demolishing the interior portions of the existing, six-story structure, Hearst and its team of building professionals went to great lengths to collect and separate recyclable materials. As a result, about 85 percent of the original structure was recycled for future use. Hearst executives also selected an innovative type of glass that wraps around the exterior of the building. The glass has a special \"low-E\" coating that allows for internal spaces to be flooded with natural light while keeping out the invisible solar radiation that causes heat. Hearst also will utilize technology that senses activity level. At lunchtime, when some employees are leaving or not using their computers, motion sensors will detect this and adjust the system accordingly. These sensors will allow for lights and computers to be turned off when a room is vacant. In addition, Hearst is using high efficiency heating and air-conditioning equipment that will utilize outside air for cooling and ventilation for 75 percent of the year, as well as Energy Star appliances. These and other energy-saving features are expected to increase energy efficiency by 22 percent compared to a standard office building. This is a welcome innovation in New York City, where rapidly growing electricity demand is threatening to overwhelm the local power supply. Hearst is also employing pioneering technologies in order to conserve and more efficiently use water. For example, Hearst\'s roof has been designed to collect rainwater, which reduces the amount of water dumped into the City\'s sewer system during rainfall by 25 percent. The rainwater will then be harvested in one 14,000-gallon reclamation tank located in the basement of the Hearst Tower. The rainwater is used to replace water lost to evaporation in the office air-conditioning system. It also feeeds into a special pumping system to irrigate plantings and trees inside and outside of the building. It is expected that the captured rain will produce about half of the watering needs. The harvested water also is utilized for \"Icefall,\" a three-story, sculpted water feature within the building\'s grand atrium. In addition to serving as a stunning entrance to the building, Icefall, which is believed to be the nation\'s largest sustainable water feature, also serves an environmental function by serving to humidify and chill the atrium lobby as necessary. Workstations and offices are furnished with desks, chairs and other furniture that is formaldehyde free. Concrete surfaces are furnished with low toxicity sealants.

The Beijing National Stadium (traditional Chinese: 北京國家體育場; simplified Chinese: 北京国家体育场; Hanyu Pinyin: Běijīng Guójiā Tǐyùchǎng; Tongyong Pinyin: Běijīng Guójiā Tǐyùchǎng), also known as the National Stadium,[1] or the \"Bird\'s Nest\" (鳥巢) for its architecture, is a stadium finished for the Olympic Green in Beijing, China that has so far been completed as of March 2008.[2] The stadium will host the main track and field competitions for the 2008 Summer Olympics, as well as the opening and closing ceremonies. It is located east of the Beijing National Aquatics Centre. In 2002, Government officials engaged architects worldwide in a design competition. Pritzker Prize-winning architects Herzog & de Meuron collaborated with ArupSport and China Architecture Design & Research Group to win the competition. Contemporary Chinese artist, Ai Weiwei, is the Artistic Consultant for design.[3] The ground was broken on Christmas Eve December 2003, and construction started in March 2004, but was halted by the high construction cost in August 2004 and continued again. In January 2008, concerns about construction working conditions arose when it was revealed that 2 workers had died during the stadium\'s construction. The stadium can seat as many as 91,000 spectators during the Olympics. The capacity will then be reduced to 80,000 after the Games. It has replaced the original intended venue of the Guangdong Olympic Stadium[citation needed]. The stadium is 330 metres long by 220 metres wide, and is 69.2 metres tall. The stadium uses 258,000 square metres of space and has a usable area of 204,000 square metres. It was built with 36 km of unwrapped steel[citation needed], with a combined weight of 45,000 tonnes. The stadium has some 11,000 square metres of underground rooms with waterproof walls. The stadium will cost up to 3.5 billion yuan (≈423 million USD). Upon completion, this stadium will boast a state of the art Solar PV system produced by Suntech Power [More] [Less] |
