This is NOT our typical Habitat house. Union College donated the property and provided lots of support. Students and staff supplied labor, lunches and occasional equipment for special needs. Early in the project there were so many difficult challenges that demolition was considered. Without the help of the Conservation Energy Group, Building Performance Consulting and Twinsulation we would never have achieved the Energy Star rating.
