    December 16, 2008Staff 1 Comment »

    Just heard that the first six, LEED Platinum certified homes in Brad Pitt’s rehab project in New Orleans are now finished. The homes use sustainable materials and donated time and effort to come in under the symbolic $150,000 budget.

    Congratulations to everyone involved!
