The Hearst Tower, First Certified Environmental Tower, 8th Avenue, Manhattan, New York, United States. Architecture of Norman Foster, 2006. Photography 3/10/2008. The “Hearst Tower” (182 m high, 46 floors, 67,000 m2) is the first office tower in the city to obtain environmental certification. Baptisee LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), this certification was awarded in September 2006 by the U.S. Green Building Council, recognized as the supreme national authority for environmentally sensitive buildings. Metallic structure is for example 85% recycled steel. The low emissive glazing chosen for the outer envelope allows natural light to be felt but insulates from the heat of the sun. Inside the offices, sensors control the amount of artificial light according to the amount of natural light present on each floor. And efficient water management has been implemented with water recycling.

The renovation of the Bundestag, Reichstag Palace in Berlin (Germany). Renovation 1999, entrusted to architect Sir Norman Foster. The construction of a Paul Wallot project was completed in December 1894. The Italian High Renaissance style building is topped by a dome that rises 75 metres above the ground. Dem Deutschen Volke (To the German People) was affixed during the First World War. On November 9, 1918, from a window in the palace, politician Philipp Scheidemann announced the end of the Hohenzollern monarchy and proclaimed the Republic. The Sovietic army raised a red flag on April 30, 1945 when Berlin was captured at the end of World War II. The building was renovated between 1961 and 1973 by the Federal Republic of Germany without the dome. After the German reunification of 3 October 1990, the German Parliament (Bundestag) decided on 20 June 1991 to move the Federal Parliament and Government from Bonn to Berlin and to reinstate it in the Reichstag Palace. Symbol of the Reichstag, the dome is reconstructed from glass. Photography 01/04/98.
