Working Title of The Project (which we will use to refer to it throughout the series)

Zero Place

Project Location

New Paltz, NY

Nature of The Project (e.g. building, new community, economic development, etc.)

Net Zero Residential Development

Why do you think this project is appropriate for the course assignment?

Zero Place was conceived as a structure for residential and business use that would attain the highest levels of energy efficiency and sustainability. The project seems appropriate for the assignment because it was conceived as "sustainable" and "net zero" in terms of energy use - but/and we as a group are curious about the developer's thinking in regard to this project, and we are curious about other concerns, such as the community's needs and the needs of nature in this place. We wonder which aspects of regenerative design he took into account and which he didn't.
