REVITALIZING A COMMUNITY ASSET
By renovating an existing structure, the embodied carbon of the project is dramatically reduced. Additionally, salvaged materials are used throughout the buildingincluding innovative aluminum-clad wood windows made with reclaimed douglas fir - to further reduce carbon impacts.
Within this century-old frame, a new building emerges, complete with state-of-the-art mechanical systems and countless sustainable design strategies. The renovation project is targeting 6 of the 7 Living Building Challenge petals.
PROGRESS TO DATE:
• The building’s roof and floors are now complete, with all windows and doors installed, as well as skylights in place.
• Interior framing and rough in plumbing has also been completed.
• Exterior siding and interior electrical and mechanical rougn in work is next up!
Stay tuned for the next issue of LOVE+REGENERATION when we share the completed project prior to move in!
