Green building means resource-efficient design, construction, and operation of homes.  At METRO GREEN, we believe that you can build green, smart AND beautiful.   

METRO GREEN's current focus project is at 5803 North 16th Street in Arlington, Virginia.  The home is designed with four full bedrooms and 4.5 baths and is meant to serve the modern family.  As an infill project, it is situated in a close in Arlington neighborhood, one block from: Westover shops, Westover Library, Swanson Middle School, and the Westover school park and ballfields.  It is less than a mile to the Metro and a block from a main bus line.   

The home is in the US Green Building Council's LEED Pilot for Homes Project and is in line to be the first new residence in the Washington Metropolitan area with a LEED Gold and possibly even Platinum rating.   

The house will be located next to another METRO GREEN project, the green renovation of a historic 1890s Westover farmhouse.  Indeed, the projects were designed by the same architect and are meant to work together, showing that past and future can co-exist.
