Redwood Commons, now fully occupied and functioning, is the first of its kind: affordable, fully accessible green housing.
Geo. H. Wilson was part of Barry Swenson Building Construction team that provided the sustainable mechanical components such as:
• Solar Hot Water
• High Efficiency Boiler & Furnace
• Dual Flush Toilets
• Lavatory Trap Primers
• ADA Bathtubs and Roll-in Showers
Our efforts in using these sustainable components qualified the project for the
City of Santa Cruz Green Building Award.
Our commitment to green building is consistent with the goals of the Monterey Bay Area Green Business Program and Think Local First as a sustainable means to save water and energy.
