HAWTHORNE WORLD

Now that we have a standard (latest is ICC 700-2015), which is also accepted by ANSI (American National Standards Institute), we can aim for specific ratings for either bronze, silver, gold, or emerald. All of Hawthorne's construction presently will achieve a minimum of a bronze level, if not silver... These values have been exhibited in all of Hawthorne's developments. For instance, believing that it is wasteful to create a new building when an existing building can be repurposed, Hawthorne has pursued several projects of rehabilitation, renovation, and reuse, many of which are award-winning. Continuing on that tradition, several green building practices are incorporated in Hawthorne's projects as standard features, thus aiming for Green Silver or Green Gold (per National Green Building Standards) as standards for its construction. Second, following the American ideal of self-reliance, and the ‘can do' attitude, these Green buildings are programmed, and constructed to be Net Zero..
