TreePeople Blazing Trails With Green Building

For 30 years, TreePeople has worked to reshape the public’s perception of trees and greenscape, from aesthetic in nature to vital infrastructure. The inter-relationship of buildings and nature will be on display next year when TreePeople opens up its Center for Community Forestry. The groundbreaking design by Marmol Radziner + Associates not only will allow the building provide its own water, but the center also will generate its own power. TPR presents this interview with Andy Lipkis, President of TreePeople, in which he discusses the center’s construction and what TreePeople aims to achieve with its completion.
