Live from NY: "Green This House"

So I had this great idea: Renovate an old, ugly house in the suburbs of New York using as many green, sustainable features as possible. Then showcase the house in all it's green glory to prospective buyers and folks who want to learn more about a healthier, energy efficient home at a series of Open House Events.

I will be documenting the entire project from start to finish on this blog so join us while we attempt to answer these questions:

What sustainable materials and products will we use and why?
Does renovating green really cost more?
Can a renovation be green?
What's the popularity of green residential construction in NY and everywhere?
Do people care at all?
Will we sell the house or will we be stuck with it?
Was buying a home in the worst real estate market in 10 years a really stupid idea or am I a freakin' genius?!

Follow this ground breaking series while we uncover the story behind greenovations!!!
