A house that was built in the 1800s is now part of an environmental trend thanks to a renovation project at Mercer University.

 

“…workers recycled about 75 percent of rubble from a part of the house that was demolished. It’s all part of a process to get gold certification in the national Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program.”

 

 

“The $1.4 million renovation project added 3,000 square feet to the existing 2,700-square-foot building.”
