Sustainable Fellwood, new urban neighborhood in Savannah
ROBERT STEUTEVILLE    JUN. 22, 2012
Sustainable Fellwood is a LEED-certified new urban neighborhood near the historic district of Savannah, Georgia. The $50 million redevelopment of public housing has a mix of housing types (220 units), including single-family and multifamily, and community buildings on a 27-acre site with a block and street network. Construction of affordable units use a combination of less expensive and more expensive materials, with nice trim details, designed by Lott + Barber architects. A community garden is a civic amenity. Through appealing affordable units and low environmental impact, the goal is a triple bottom line.
