CopenHill

"Tell me: What’s this place about?Designed by Danish architect Bjarke Ingels, CopenHill is a multi-use waste-to-energy plant. Why would anyone possibly want to visit a waste-to-energy plant? Well, the building has a ski slope, climbing wall, and cafe. What’s it like being there?Awe-inspiring. How could anyone possibly make a waste-to-energy plant fun? Bjarke Ingels, a Danish architect famous for his inventive approach to design. Who comes here?Locals, climbers, and anyone who's remotely curious about the development, which has received numerous awards and recognition. Did it meet expectations?Even if you have no interest in skiing down the 1,300-foot slope, you'll certainly be interested in seeing it. At the very least, swing by the cafe for an apres-ski beer. The shiny building is also an architectural marvel. So what, or who, do you think it’s best for?Anyone. Even if you have limited time, it's worth swinging by on your way to your, uh, Noma reservation." - Mary Holland
