America's greenest landmarks
You may have seen shows featuring America's top diners or magazines telling you the best places in the country to lay your head but the latest issue of Travel and Leisure offers something different. The publication has compiled a list of Must-See Green American Landmarks. Some of these places have altered the landscape drastically or worked with the earth to create something that is sustainable and that makes it beautiful. The landmarks aren't what you'd expect. You won't see platinum certified office buildings or biodomes. Travel and Leisure features an abandoned freight rail turned nature walk, the first LEED certified ballpark, and a parking garage to name of few of the unexpected winners. Hop in your electric car or tune-up your bike and make a road trip to see what these greenest sites have to offer.
Check out our gallery for some of the top picks.
