Tour the soon-to-be country’s largest Passive House certified structure with us on September 19.

We will have two tours at 4:15 and 5:15 pm. Additionally, developer Jonathan Arnold will give a presentation on this unique project. Light snacks and drinks are included for this “members-only” event. Cost to attend is $10.
*Please meet at the Leasing Office at 1st and Main to begin the tour. Consider taking the streetcar to avoid parking congestion!
*Hard hats will be required for this tour as most of the project is still under construction. If you have one, please bring it with you.
