Green Initiatives
In our conservation-conscious society, many building owners are saving money by making their properties more energy efficient, taking advantage of tax incentives and helping the planet all at the same time.
In April, 2012, the city of New York adopted a “Zone Green” amendment, removing “a wide range of impediments to the construction and retrofitting of greener buildings.” Another recent city amendment addressed preserving and enhancing the street-scape character of residential neighborhoods.
