Eco-Lofts get their watts from the wind

windfarm.jpgIt'd be hard for a new development with the name "Eco-Lofts" to escape my radar.  But there's more here than just a trendy name.  Eco-Lofts are Atlanta's first condominiums to be powered 100 % by clean, renewable, wind energy.  All the energy for Eco-Lofts comes from windmill farms like those popping up in Minnesota. 

I really like this project for three reasons:

  • Their energy source is clean and sustainable
  • They are being built to EarthCraft standards
  • They are location-efficient, adjacent to MARTA

One additional reason you'll like them if you're in the market for an ecohome is that, because of their proximity to MARTA, they qualify for the Rail Estate Rebate.  

All-in-all, a compelling list of reasons to consider Eco-Lofts for those seeking an Intown EcoHome.
