A new sustainable housing development, Green Street in The Meadows, Nottingham, has started on site thanks to support from the HCA. The scheme, being delivered by developers Blueprint, will comprise 38 high quality three and four-bedroom homes in the Green Street/Fraser Road area adjacent to the Victoria Gardens on the Trent Embankment. The first 13 homes should be ready for occupation by autumn 2010 and the scheme should be complete by spring 2011. The homes will achieve level 4 of the Code for Sustainable Homes (CSH) and Building for Life Gold standard. As sustainable low-energy homes, the Green Street houses will have levels of insulation and air tightness which far exceed current building regulations. All of the homes will have ground-level court yards and large roof terraces while most will also have balconies and private car ports/garages for parking. Read more details on the HCA website.
