The building got its name as each floor has outdoor gardens that spiral around the facade of the building in a continuous green pathway. It was designed by Bjarke Ingels Group, which also designed the nearby West 57. Space Copenhagen provided interior design services. The building includes a clubhouse and an open-air terrace with panoramic city views on the 66th floor, along with a lounge.[1] The building has an irrigation system provided by Bosch that is designed to save 4.5 million gallons of water per year compared to other systems.[1][2]
