Pittsburgh's reputation for sustainability and smart redevelopment was reinforced this spring when the
Center for Sustainable Landscapes opened in the Oakland neighborhood near Schenley Park.
It's one of the world's first "living buildings," which goes beyond LEED Platinum requirements to include net-zero energy as well as a host of other green features, and is part of the
Living Building Challenge.
