Freshly posted on LaneBailey.com... Gwinnett Environmental and Heritage Center sign Complete with 20 photographs and an interactive panorama...

The Gwinnett Environmental & Heritage Center opened not too long ago.  And it is quietly a pretty cool place. 

Here are a couple of highpoints from the post:

  • The first LEED Gold Certified Green Building in Gwinnett County.
  • The largest sloped vegetative roof in the US.
  • A very cool interactive "Water Room" for kids... even big kids.
  • Pervious pavement system to reduce stormwater runoff.
  • 11 different trails ranging up to 2.4 miles, and from easy to strenuous.
  • Facility rental for events.

This is a pretty cool place, offering multiple educational and recreational opportunities.

Tom - I'm not green on purpose.  I like the elegant and efficient solutions.  I don't worry about being "green" as much as seeing that they can make the building cheaper to operate and less obtrusive.  And they are using some cool technology.  Did you look at the 20 pictures and the Pano on the other post?

Cynthia - There are a lot of things...  Sometimes as long time residents we get sidetracked and forget about all of the cool things locally.  I've been here almost 20 years and there are places I haven't been.
