= USGBC Maine Event
BrightBuilt Barn Tour
Join us for a tour of this award-winning, practical, affordable, beautiful structure that is one of the only buildings in the world to be designed to be truly carbon neutral: by making more clean energy than it consumes, over its lifespan, BrightBuilt Barn will actually offset all the atmospheric greenhouse gases produced by its construction.
This in-depth tour will be led by Keith Collins, BrightBuilt's owner, and Phil Kaplan of Kaplan Thompson Architects, the project's architect.
A Portland-area carpool will depart from the Park and Ride lot on Marginal Way, just east of Franklin Arterial at 3:00 PM.
The cost to attend the tour is $10 for USGBC Maine Chapter members, $12 for non-members. To register for the event, pay below with PayPal or e-mail programs@maineusgbc.org to reserve your spot. Kindly RSVP by Wednesday, June 23, 2010.
From the South: 295 North; Exit 28/US Rt. 1 toward Coastal Route Brunswick/Bath; Continue on US Rt. 1 N for about 43 miles; Left onto ME-90 E/Camden Road. Once on Rt. 90 in Rockport, the turn off for Mill Street is a right turn just after the Maine Center for Furniture Craftsmanship (also on the right). Proceed up a steep hill and the driveway for 191 is on the right. There is a small but bright sign near the road that says BrightBuilt Barn. Please proceed down the entry road. As the trees open up, there is a small parking area to the right, across from the barn on the left. Please park there.
