ed to Get a Glimpse of this Amazing Book: "Constructing Supportive Housing – A Construction Photo Journal" – Describing the whole process of demolition and construction of Eastman Commons Community.
This book, principally in pictures, reflects the story of a dream coming to a reality – creating housing for the poor and formerly homeless who needed it most. It has been twelve years in coming through the diligent efforts of the Eastman Commons Board of Directors, its many volunteers and supporters that the Supportive Housing reflected in this book reached its true beginning with the start of construction – but most of all, reflections of the new housing community where residents live with a new sense of pride of place, renewed hope and a distinctive place they call home.

June 2012 to Completion: June 2012 was a busy month with construction winding-down and the final touches of completion underway. At the same time, it was an exciting month that saw new residents moving in to their attractive and wonderful new apartments. Many special design features have been incorporated into the construction of this remarkable building, including: a tight, highly insulated building envelope, energy star appliances, high performance condensing boilers, energy efficient lighting controls and fixtures, water saving plumbing fittings and fixtures, and many other materials chosen for their reduced environmental impact. The building is dedicated to creating a vibrant community that residents call home.
