Brock Built Sets High Standards in the Atlanta Homebuilding Industry
Major kudos go to Brock Built for their spectacular community service project that not only benefits one of Atlanta’s best non-profit organizations, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, but also is environment-friendly as the project is being built completely to green standards. Brock Built officially kicked off their Going Green - “The Green House” project last month with the pouring of the foundation walls. Brock Built has partnered with WSB-TV and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta to build an environmentally responsible demonstration home that will showcase sustainable design features attainable by the typical Atlanta family. As green living becomes more popular among the community, Brock Built is teaching people that going green begins at home. The house itself will be built to EarthCraft standards and constructed of innovative Green building materials. Other Green features will include: grey water collection, rain barrels, a water saving drip irrigation system, Energy Star appliances, extreme envelope protection, and much more. Construction on The Green House is expected to be complete in August, when the public will be invited to tour the home. WSB –TV will film the entire building process and will run a special one-hour prime time program in September telling the story of the innovative partnership behind the home’s creation, as well as the remarkable transformation of the larger West Highlands community. The program will also help consumers understand what they can do in their own homes to go green. The Green House will be auctioned off to the highest bidder in October 2008. All proceeds from the sale will be given to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, a not-for-profit organization that provides care, research, teaching, wellness and charity care for the children of Atlanta. If interested in this project, you can follow it’s development on the Green Built blog.
