“The Green Square Complex is a two-block, multi-use sustainable development project that will bring North Carolina's state environmental offices and a nationally significant Nature Research Center to the heart of North Carolina's capital city.”

They’re getting in the short rows here to open in just a few days. Although there is going to be a prominent tower on this complex, the most notable landmark here is clearly going to be the 3+ story earth globe out front. Caught these workers putting the continents in place. There will be a theater inside the globe that is part of the NC Museum of Natural History. An elevated connector will link the complex to the older museum across the street.
