<p>Sorry that this is so random.</p>

<p>What are a few examples of green architecture in London?</p>

<p>I believe that The Helicon is one.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>You COULD consider Foster’s Gherkin as green, but I hate him too much to give him such credit</p>

<p>I like the Gherkin --it’s fun, and every city needs a new phallic landmark now and then in the style of its time. You can consider it a success to some extent just by virtue of its having been given a nickname at all. FYI, treehugger has a link to an Economist article about the Gherkin’s green features ([The</a> Economist on Green Building and Swiss Re Tower : TreeHugger](<a href=“http://www.treehugger.com/files/2004/12/the_economist_o.php]The”>http://www.treehugger.com/files/2004/12/the_economist_o.php))</p>

<p>I don’t know of any other green buildings in London, but they are getting ambitious about bike paths, which to me is a hallmark of sustainable urban planning: [Streetsblog</a> London Announces Billion Dollar Bike Plan](<a href=“Homepage - Streetsblog New York City”>Homepage - Streetsblog New York City)</p>
