Green Preservation
Preserving affordable housing is inherently resource efficient – the greenest building is the one that already exists. By retrofitting existing affordable housing to increase energy efficiency, green jobs are created, low-income residents pay less in utilities, operating costs are lowered, and healthier homes are created. In addition, preserving and greening transit-connected affordable housing has the dual benefits of reducing energy consumed through transportation and reducing the environmental impact of the housing stock.
