eco towers will be the first mixed use leed platinum certified skyscrapers in the middle east. the 23-story towers flaunt such earth friendly features such as:
air purification systems, renewable energy, toxic-free materials, dual glaze windows, water efficiency and waste reduction, not to mention breathtaking curves.

fyi: leed stands for leadership in energy and environmental design and provides standards for environmentally sustainable construction.
take a gander at the rating system when you have a chance. it will no doubt help you impress people at the next green cocktail party you attend.
