The Hive, designed by Toronto-based architecture studio Dialog, is the highest seismic-force-resisting building made from mass timber in North America. The 10-story office building is built out of wood and uses a design system that allows it to wiggle, shake, and settle. By substituting mass timber for steel-and-concrete construction, the building is sequestering a total of 4,403 metric tons of CO2, equivalent to taking 1,300 cars off the road for a year. Despite these advantages, tall mass timber buildings like the Hive are rare. Interest in mass timber construction has been revived in cities like New York, Milwaukee, and Vancouver as a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. There are currently around 2,700 mass timber structures in the U.S.
