Green Building in Austin - This Old House.

 

The "This Old House" television crew came to Austin to film the renovation of a 1920's bungalow in the historic Hyde Park neighborhood. Environmentally friendly materials and green building techinques were used as much as possible. Our very good friend and fellow green builder, Bill Moore, was the general contractor. These are some photos from the lively wrap-up party of this green re-construction in Austin.
