    The Center for Maths Science in Cambridge, England, has a grass roof over a central area:

    the web site has a bit of information but not much. It is dramatic building, but not as well loved as somewhere to work as the nearby Isaac Newton Institute.

    Just did a reaserch on greenroofs and there are a number of sites you can visit:
    http://www.zinco.de (you can ask them to send you information – in their brochures are many details) http://www.erisco-bauder.co.uk http://www.greenroofs.com

    I could send you some details but all the text is in Portuguese…

    If anyone remembers, there was an episode of “Our House” a year or two ago with a couple building a house which had a grass roof. It was covered over a few episodes until the house was completed so it shouldn’t be too hard to get info on it.
