Hartford Area Habitat for Humanity to Build First Green Home
Starting in April 2006, Hartford Habitat will begin constructing a duplex home on Risley Street using green building products and technology. The project is made possible with consulting support provided by United Technologies and Global Green USA and sponsorship support by Carrier Corporation and Nationwide. AuctorVerno, LLC has signed an agreement to assist in marketing and project coordination.
Bethany, CT, February 24, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Habitat for Humanity is partnering with two families in Hartford’s North East neighborhood by providing an opportunity for them to build and own their own homes. That in itself is a wonderful gift but this gift will be enhanced by its eco-friendly building materials. Hartford Area Habitat for Humanity will construct its first green home and AuctorVerno will assist in promotion and project coordination. The project is made possible with consulting support provided by Hartford based United Technologies Corporation and Global Green USA and sponsorship support by Carrier Corporation and Nationwide.
According to Hartford Habitat executive director Julie Donahue, “This is our first green home.” She added, “We will use this project as a template for future homes and we hope to have the opportunity to try many new technologies.”
The hope for all parties involved in this project is that green building will be viewed as a valuable and viable construction option. To help publicize the home and the green building cause, AuctorVerno will donate a page on its Web site, buildingctgreen.com. The web page will include a diary of the building’s progress. Adam Ney, co-founder of AuctorVerno, hopes to build awareness about sustainable design so that others will follow the trend. “If Habitat for Humanity can build a green home, it is in reach of every homeowner and developer who is building in Connecticut today.”
Besides promoting the project on its Web site, AuctorVerno will have personnel volunteer to help the project in material acquisition and construction. Ney comments, “We are very pleased to be part of the Hartford Habitat green home team. We are also excited to promote this showcase project on buildingctgreen.com so that others can gain knowledge and assist in greening Hartford’s communities.”
