I work with LEED certification quite a bit and they've gone above and beyond to make this not just green, but really liveable as well. Some of the more out there green tech just isn't sustainable. I read somewhere this house would go for around 500k on the market, not bad for a single family new construction. Add the tax benefits and energy savings? That's starting to get affordable for more than just rock star enviro-nuts. The PDF off the site is a great read. http://www.msichicago.org/fileadmin/Exhibits/temporary/smart_home/smart_home_guide.pdf</p>
