Here we have the new reception centre at Van Dusen Botanical Gardens.
The building is rated very green (LEED Platinum).
It features a green roof, grey water recycling, solar water heaters, photovoltaic panels, rammed earth walls, B.C.lumber and so on and so forth.
More importantly, it has a nice little café.

The shadow looks like a giant maple leaf. It's too bad we don't have enough green buildings.
Looks like a great one. Can you also show some interior shots.

s.c., here are a couple of interior shots. Not great ones but ...
From your title I was expecting a green coloured building, so I guess I'm not with the eco-times! Your second Flickr shot, above, I rather like.
Terrific photograph! I like all the green stuff! And the cafe!
Seems to have all the right priorities!
it looks interesting!
Interesting architecture and eco friendly...what's not to like???
