The Greenest House in Santa Cruz County

Santa Cruz Weekly

View from the interior of the greenest house in Santa Cruz

Once finished, the greenest home to be built in Santa Cruz will produce as much energy as it uses, if not more. Located on the sunny Westside at 325 John Street, the home complies with Platinum Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards—the absolute highest certification for green buildings. The LEED certification is based on a stringent rating system set by the U.S. Green Building Council, a nonprofit organization promoting sustainable design and construction (and the fastest-growing nonprofit since 2005).
