Abstract | Scientific breakthroughs of the 20th Century brought about revolutionary technologies that drive up efficiency expectations in terms of cost and return. The revolutionary breakthroughs made many missions possible - tall intelligent buildings of supreme heights are the remarkable ones. Yet how to balance the health of Mother Nature with human greed for optimal growth is an issue that needs good planning. It is particularly important for metropolitan cities of geographical confinements. This paper looks at how Two International Finance Centre (2IFC) coped with the sustainability issues with emphases on the users and management points of view. |
