1537 WEBSTER STREET: A Green Renovation in Downtown Oakland

In March 2007 the StopWaste.Org team moved into a building we renovated in downtown Oakland. We’re proud of the effort we put into transforming a rundown, run-of-the-mill structure into a beautiful,green and healthy workplace. And we’re delighted to share some stories about how this project gave us an opportunity to put our green building and Bay-Friendly Landscaping know-how to work.

Arroyo Commons, Livermore

Arroyo Commons, a twelve-unit campus housing project in Livermore, was built in 1998 by AID Employment for people with developmental disabilities and very low incomes. Prior to construction, Green Building in Alameda County selected Arroyo Commons as a Resourceful Building Demonstration Project. From a resource-conservation perspective, one of the most unique features of Arroyo Commons is its wall system: a steel framework insulated with rice straw bales.
