Living green: Gleicher's Eco-Friendly Townhouse
Not very often does one have the chance to take an ugly duckling and create a swan. Gleicher has done just that with this building. Wanting to do what is right for his family and for the environment, Gleicher removed all the toxins that had accumulated over the years and embarked on totally revamping the home.
All new systems were installed, including energy-star rated appliances, an exceptionally efficient boiler and a wood burning fireplace that is so effective only a cup of ashes is left after going through 3 cords of wood.
