it got it because of its unique building design with its spiral structure; green features such as wind power, natural gas, and a rainwater harvesting system. It also demonstrates various sustainability features such as limiting energy consumption.

I like the spiral deign of the building and how it utilizes the spiral to minimize wind resistance. Also, I like how among the skyline it stands out with its height.
