As far back as 2007 REALTOR Magazine was exploring the trend toward green-built homes in pocket neighborhoods and the demand for sustainable products. "It's easy sounding green" one article reported, "...the triple whammy of gas prices, global warming, and health concerns about chemicals has made green buildings red hot.... ”
But here in Green Asheville, we were already on the trail of sustainable excellence. Asheville is known for our leading edge approach- Asheville Pocket Neighborhoods soar in terms of creative solutions to building and community.
