No, it does not involve I-285 — although it probably could. It is a building that was supposed to be “green” and enviro-friendly:
It is one of Emory University’s most environmentally friendly buildings, a hallmark of the institution’s efforts to “go green.” To hear John Wegner describe it, it’s also a slaughterhouse.
The soaring glass windows in Emory’s Mathematics and Science Center reflect the woodsy view, confusing hapless birds who smash into it at full speed.
“The building killed 60 birds in the first year,” said Wegner, Emory’s chief environmental officer. “It was the wall of death.”
Wegner should at least be content that it is birds and not deer. Talk about a bloody mess.
