The owners of the Empire State Building in New York have revealed their plans to give the iconic structure many energy efficiency improvements, turning it into an official green building.
The owners, Malkin Holdings, have already invested $13 million this year into the building hoping to bring more attention to the landmark. According to the Guardian, the makeover will cut roughly 40% of all energy use which will also but about $4 million back in their pockets each year. In order to do this, they’ll be refitting the windows and using a furniture repositioning method to minimize energy use.
