CoreNet Global, a real estate association, has honored a new San Francisco office complex managed by the General Services Administration with an award for "sustainable design." The slender 18-story structure features a translucent tower, glass facades and a metal screen. GSA says that most workspaces in the building will have sunlight, reducing energy required for lighting by 26 percent. And more than 70 percent of the facility will be cooled with natural ventilation. That's good, because the new complex wasn't cheap and wasn't easy to build.
