Stewardship of the Built Environment: Sustainability, Preservation, and Reuse
Robert A. Young
When we think of green building, we tend to picture new construction. In this book, the author argues that the greenest building is often the one that has already been built. It shows how rehabilitating and reusing existing structures holds untapped potential for achieving sustainable communities.
