A green roof garden and roof-top labyrinth are in progress on the roof of the American Psychological Association’s downtown Washington DC building.  The APA, which has 115,000 members, is in partnership with the World Resources Institute, a building tenant, in the planning and implementation of the innovative project. Once finished, both APA and WRI plan to hold monthly walks and public events run by the Labyrinth Society.
