Each year the AIA's Committee On The Environment (COTE) honors the best new sustainable architecture projects with a series of awards. These top-notch winners were chosen based on their reduced environmental impact as well as their positive contribution to their communities. The jury selection covers everything from mixed-use residential projects to schools, churches, offices and even a giant green-roofed convention center - read on for a look at this year's top projects!

   Vancouver Convention Centre West, Vancouver, British Columbia

The project includes an artificial reef to guide salmon around the perimeter of the development.
