Ranger, there's a lawn on your big tree house roof This building of local wood that looks sort of like a tree house is U.S. Green Building Council LEED Platinum Certified, a rarity in Kentucky. The garden on the roof and vines hanging down the walls insulates the Bernheim Forest and Arboretum Visitors Center to keep it cool in the hot summer and warm in the cold winter. Architect: William McDonough + Partners
