Construction is Underway on Brock Built’s Green House

Intown Atlanta homebuilder Brock Built, in partnership with WSB-TV, has started construction on Going Green – The Green House. This home, located in the West Highlands community, is being built with sustainable design features that are attainable by most any Atlanta family.
