I just visited Seattle, and took a tour of the Bullitt Center - http://www.bullittcenter.org/building/building-features/ "The Greenest Commercial Building in the World... goal is to drive change in the marketplace faster and further by showing what's possible today". The building was designed to be comfortable and pleasant to work in, with lots of natural light, geothermal heat and cooling, solar panels on the roof supply electricity, composting toilets for 6 stories, rainwater from roof is filtered for potable use, and lots more... All tenants commit to energy and water budgets which ensure that the building meets the Living Building Challenge.
