The new facility, near the Beechwood Blvd entrance to the Park, is the most environmental friendly municipal building in the world, according to Scott Roller with the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy. It is on track to achieve LEED Platinum and Living Building Challenge certifications. “Not only is it efficient and green, but it’s also a learning tool for people who use and encounter it to see what features they may want to bring into their own homes,” he said.
This Saturday's event runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and admission is free and will feature tours, poetry readings, activities for the kids and sustainably-powered food trucks. Over the long term, the building will be used as an education center. Roller said he hopes the design will have an impact beyond the border of the property. Find out more,
