Krone Engineered Biosystems Building
![]() The Roger A. and Helen B. Krone Engineered Biosystems Building (EBB) is an interdisciplinary facility on the North side of the campus of Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Georgia. EBB is a hub for collaboration between researchers in the fields of Chemical Biology, Cell Therapies and Systems Biology, and it houses labs and offices for nearly 40 researchers.[1] A notable occupant of the building is the Children's Pediatric Technology Center.[2] A primary design requirement of the 218,880 square feet (20,335 m2) building was to foster interaction between two colleges of Georgia Tech: the College of Engineering and the College of Science.[3] The building opened on 11 September 2015, with major funding for its development and construction provided by a gift from Roger Krone and his wife Helen Krone.[4][5] Sustainability and water useThe building's architects incorporated a naturally-occurring nearby stream and other sources of water to provide gray water for toilet flush and to feed adjacent wetland parks.[6] EBB's many sustainability features led it to achieving LEED Platinum and other green project certifications.[7] References
