Generation Green

If you are a Treehugger or if you like to read this magazine, you consider yourself Generation Green, or you choose to attend events put on by him (to the right),  it is likely you will benefit from attending the Greenbuild Expo 2010 in Chicago. 


If you decide to go, and you should whether you are in the above category or not,  I encourage you to attend the seminar about this project and another post-occupancy study; it's BL05 on Friday.

As the residents moved in and the punch-lists were closed up on the project, National Community Renaissance or CORE began managing the site.  Check out the developer's project site information and online tour.

WHAT am I doing?

Hey, my forte is to design buildings or homes and not blogs, and I recognize that, but I'm also looking for ways to impart experiences on this project with others.   So now, join me as I tread lightly on new territory and add comments, criticism, supplemental information, or suggestions on what you'd like to see. 

Here is information on the Home Depot Foundation Award Announcement and more information on the project.
