The Daily Journal of Commerce published a special feature on the Bullitt Center. This six story office building being constructed on Capitol Hill in Seattle is being built to the standards of the Living Building Challenge, which requires the building to generate all of its energy on site, collect and reuse all of its water on site, be built of nontoxic building materials, and be designed to last at least 100 years, among other things.
The feature includes a series of articles authored by the developers, designers, and builders.

The building is topped out and the finishes are starting to go in. It's planned to open in April 2013. The SEAW Sustainable Design Committee hopes to get a tour arranged for us very soon. When the tour date is set, we will let committee members know by e-mail.
