In a news post on its website, Accoya^®  announced its specification as exterior cladding on the Wood City Apartment. The eight floor high residential high rise directly facing the Gulf of Finland is located in the trendy Jätkäsaari district of Helsinki. The project is a joint venture developed by Stora Enso Wood Products, Helsinki City Apartments Limited, Novenberg Limited and SRV Group Plc.

Fast Company and the WSJ announced recently that in New York and Portland, two high-rise buildings will be made not from concrete or metal, but a throwback material: good old trees.
