Back in July I wrote a blog about the 2009 Best Tall Buildings Awards from the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) in four regions. The Council just announced the overall winner from these four, and the winner is… Linked Hybrid. The complex not only looks stunning, it is an environmentally-friendly self-sustaining ecosystem in the sky. The complex houses 2,500 inhabitants and boasts a swimming pool, fitness center, café, gallery, and tearoom. Geothermal and water recycling are two of the most green features of the design.
