21 Berkeley Street Tom Nevers

This project is an initiative carried out by the Housing Nantucket Organization; which has set out to use alternative forms of building materials and solar energy in an affordable housing unit in Tom Nevers Nantucket, MA. Over the last few years we have witnessed a continual increase in the cost of of fossil fuels. This choice - to use Insulated Concrete Foam and solar heat - by the HNO, will greatly assist residents by drastically lowering heating costs.
As residents of the Global Village, it is our collective responsibility to commit ourselves to carbon footprint reduction and the application of alternative energy. Thus, it is our hope, that Housing Nantucket as an organization, will continue to be a vanguard in its unrelenting efforts to serve our Island community, by offering sustainable community housing opportunities.


In this photo Aaron Marcavitch - Executive Director of Housing Nantucket - lends a helping hand in the field. Aaron has been a tremendous supporter in adopting Insulated Concrete Forms in the construction of this home. He and his colleagues have demonstrated their commitment to building safe, strong, energy-efficient and sustainable homes.
