Please come to our upcoming forum where we will be presenting real life examples of cost effective, low energy multi-family buildings in Maine and the Northeast. On February 15th, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, at the Portland Public Library, we will be exploring new approaches for developing, designing and building low-energy, cost-effective, multi-family buildings in Maine. This forum is open to all who are invested in affordable, cost-effective development of multi-family housing. Chris Benedict R.A. from New York City will be our keynote speaker, showing examples from her built portfolio of over 80 mid-rise multi-family buildings that have been constructed for the same cost as conventional construction, but use 85% less heating energy than their neighbors. In addition, GO Logic & Kaplan Thompson Architects will show recent Maine low-energy multi-family projects. Several building product companies will have product displays available, and we will finish up the event with an informal discussion during a catered lunch. Please see the attached flyer and visit www.passivhausMAINE.org for more details and registration information.
