One of only six new buildings in New York City to receive the council’s highest certification, Wilf Hall, which opened in 2010, features energy-saving innovations such as a green roof and planted terraces that insulate the building and filter pollutants out of rainwater. On the first floor, bicycle storage and showers encourage modes of commuting that promote health and don’t use fuel.
