First high performance building in Downtown Columbus
Featured site on the American Solar Energy Society Ohio Solar Tour since 2001
Designed before LEED-NC, design strategies followed a similar emphasis on site, energy, minimal materials, water management and indoor environmental quality
Passive solar design based on skin optimization and north-south orientation
Sunshades, a clerestory and interior light shelves have reduced HVAC and lighting costs
Exceeds AHSRAE 90.1 by 32%
With many features offsetting each other in expense during construction, the building cost the same to construct as a similar conventional office building
