Green Home Tour – Green Strategies for Urban Living
| June 20, 2009 | ||
| 10:00 am | to | 1:00 pm |
This is in the city (Philadelphia), but thought anyone who was interested in greening their home could get ideas from what is being done here. Some points of interest in the tour will be reclaimed / recycled materials, low flow and dual flush plumbing fixtures, soy based spray foam insulation, and more. Website has more details.
When: Saturday, June 20th 10 AM – 1 PM
Cost: $15 DVGBC Members / $20 Non-Members
Join the Delaware Valley Green Building Council Residential Circle to examine three very different answers to building Green in the City. Thin Flats in Northern Liberties – the first LEED Platinum Duplex in the country. Bancroft Green, just south of South Street, are new energy efficient townhomes; Montrose Green, on nearby Montrose Street, aims for LEED Platinum status and is an innovative re-working of a Philadelphia rowhome. We will also visit New Market, LEED gold pending.
