LEED Certified House to be Built in Springfield

Operation New Hope Development (ONH) is building a LEED Certified house at 237 W 11th in Historic Springfield. This blog is meant to be a window into the process and follow the house as it gets built and hopefully answer any questions that the public may have about this process and the benefits of LEED Certification.

ONH Development is the first non-profit developer in the state to build LEED Certified homes. They have already built 5 LEED Certified homes in East Jacksonville and this one on 11th will be the first in Historic Springfield. Like all new construction homes in the historic district, they have to obtain a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Board.
