* NAHB Green Project of the Year: Luxury Multifamily
Awarded to the company that develops green built luxury condominiums or apartments, this honor was presented to Ecohousing and Poretsky Builders in Bethesda, Md. The company involved future residents in the design of the Eastern Village Cohousing Condominiums, which were converted from a four-story, U-shaped concrete-frame office building. The new residences maintain the same U-shape design, but added green features including a front façade with a sunshade and a “living” roof with plants to control rainwater runoff and provide thermal protection.

** Smart Growth Award: Eastern Village Cohousing is a development involving the rehabilitation of a distressed office building into a mixed-use condominium project providing 55 residential units, common facilities, and 12,000 square feet of office and artist space. Innovative and substantial "green" technology was incorporated in the construction to conserve energy; and trellises and a garden were also designed and constructed for the site.
