The Largest Green Friendly Development Ever

by Donna Schoenkopf

Want to see what the homes look like that Brad Pitt and fourteen architects have been working on in New Orleans?

These homes are part of the largest green-friendly development in the world.  They feature:

    *  solar panels which result in zero energy use

    *  framing that can stand up to 130 mph winds

    *  Kevlar coated windows (like the bullet-proof vests) that can stand up to hurricane winds

    *  Energy Star appliances

    *  cisterns to harvest rainwater

    *  fiber cement board for strength

    *  low flow toilets and zero VOC paint

    *  landscaping that fits the environment

    *  built 5 to 8 feet above ground in case of flooding, with escape hatches to the roof

Check it out on this website.  The homes are beautiful inside and out.  Love you, Brad Pitt!!
