CEOs helped plant 9-meter black olive tree in City Green Court

The tree that dominates the atrium of the City Green Court was jointly planted by the mayor of Prague 4, Pavel Horálek, and CEOs of companies that will move into the building during the fall:

• Marie Passburg, President of Skanska Property CR who developed the building
• Nicklas Lindberg, President of Skanska Commercial Development Europe
• Monika Horníková, CEO of GlaxoSmithKline CR who will be on the 8th floor of the building
• and Jiří Moser, County Managing Partner of PwC CR.

The Tree Planting Ceremony took place on Monday, 17 September in the atrium of City Green Court. After brief introductory speeches given by all CEOs and the mayor, all the speakers put on gloves, took their shovels and spent several minutes covering the soil below the tree with the final layer of small stones.

The unique design of this modern building was created by the New York architectural studio Richard Meier & Partners. Interiors of PwC were designed by the architectural studio Cuboid Architekti.

City Green Court is the first office building in the country that received LEED Platinum pre-certification – the highest green office standard.
