The Green Exchange is a sustainable and green retail and office development project in the Logan Square community area of Chicago, Illinois that is designed to house more than one hundred eco-friendly businesses and organizations within a single building. Developers of the building are currently seeking LEED Platinum status for their rehabilitation of a historic landmark four-story manufacturing facility originally built in 1914. Once completed, the retail and office space will be open to the public and is intended to serve as an important Midwest destination for green consumers.
Famous quotes containing the words green and/or exchange:
“There is something I have forgotten, some precious thing.
I shall be seeking ornaments of ivory,
I shall be dying for a jungle fruit.
You do not hear, Bethesda.
O still green water in a stagnant pool!”
—Arna Bontemps (1902–1973)
“I can exchange opinion with any neighbouring mind,
I have as healthy flesh and blood as any rhymer’s had,
But O! my Heart could bear no more when the upland caught the wind;
I ran, I ran, from my love’s side because my Heart went mad.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
