GreenSource online recently posted a video of the Downtown Tempe Transporation Center designed by Architekton with Otak.

The new Downtown Tempe Transportation Center caters to bus and light-rail riders, pedestrians, and bicyclists. As principal planner for the city’s transit division, Bonnie Richardson, AIA, played a key role in the project. She shows us the facility, which awaits LEED Platinum certification.
