I am looking for a list of contractors and architects who specialize in sustainable building/renovation/demolition in Manhattan or NYC generally. Do you all maintain such a list or know somebody who does?
Thanks for the great work,
Shannon
Shannon,
We do actually know who maintains a list like this.
Greenhomeguide maintains a directory of GCs, designers, and architects who specialize in green design in New York. There aren’t too many in NYC listed there, but it will give you a start. You can also go to the US Green Building Council’s New York Chapter website (off of www.usgbc.org) and cross-check the membership against professionals you may know. Chances are they at least care about green design and will be willing to work with you if they aren’t especially knowledgeable.
The
Northeast Sustainable Energy Association’s Sustainable Yellow pages is also a place to find New York Area sustaianble architects and design professionals.
