Bankers are building green.

In Mexico City, the main avenue Reforma will soon be home to the tallest building in Latin America, the new Bancomer tower.

It's going to be 274 meters or about 899 feet tall. The lot is 389 m² or about 4187 ft². To get an idea, an NBA basketball court is 4,700 ft².

The plans also include cutting edge technology that will reduce water and electricity use by 33%. And the economy will get a boost with the construction process expected to generate about 3,000 new jobs in the next four years. Completion date is set for 2013.
