Green Building in Charlotte, NC
Here are renderings of the future Greyhound Bus Station/Parking Deck my company Wagner Murray Architects is designing. The emphasis here is GREEN, and to create a building that is LEED certified. I'm not sure how many LEED points it will get though.
Now, you'll have to bare with me, I'm the graphic designer here, so they don't tell me much about this type of stuff. It has solar panels on the roof and special fans to keep it cool, and I believe the fans generate energy too. It manages storm water on site. The glass is heat/light sensitive and changes tint depending on the time of day. It has a green roof and green walls. It does recycle storm water for irrigation, and has overall increased insulation.
Again, I wish I new more about all this, but here are the renderings of what it should look like once it's completed:
