Ward-Young is proud to announce that the firm has been presented with the 2015 Contra Costa Green Building Award for Woodbury, a luxury condominium in Lafayette. The 7th Annual Contra Costa Leadership in Sustainability & Green Building Awards Gala on September 23rd paid tribute to local businesses, government programs, community groups, nonprofits and individuals who demonstrate an outstanding commitment to implementing sustainable practices.
Woodbury is the new residential enclave in the heart of Lafayette that hosts a community of 36 new luxury Garden Flats and 20 Terrace Flats, many with views of Mount Diablo. Woodbury was designed to promote convenience and eco-friendly initiatives. The idea is simple; less time spent caring for a home and more time enjoying the ease and independence of a state-of-the-art new residence in one of California's most popular towns. Located in the heart of Lafayette, and with walking and biking trails right outside the property, it is a short walk to downtown, public transportation, and local parks.
"We are honored to receive this award! Working with The New Home Company to create eco-friendly spaces that our clients can enjoy and have a better quality of life was one of the goals of this project," said Scott Thomsen, Architect, the project designer at Ward-Young Architects.
