Urban Redevelopment - Reuse, Reduce, Recycle

As the term sustainability grows in our culture, we continue to pull out the old work-horses, like recycling. But we never think about reusing things we already have. What about all of our beautiful old buildings in downtown's across America? Why not live a few blocks from where you work - reducing your carbon footprint by walking to work? Why not move into an old loft building - reusing a beautiful old space, instead of tearing it down? You can reduce urban blight and make a commitment to the environment at the same time.
