Peachtree Corners claims to be 'the first place in the United States to receive an innovative and high-tech structure intended to cool down urban areas by greening them up.' The modular, vegetation-covered formation, corolle (which means petal of a flower), is the creation of French technology company Urban Canopee. Peachtree Corners' Town Center is also now home to a Mini Corolle, or Mini Canopee. This steel-covered fiberglass structure includes a mesh cylindrical, upward-and-outward-spreading canopy overlaid with climbing plants.
