By definition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says green building – also known as sustainable or high performance building – is the practice of creating structures and using processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building’s life cycle from siting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation and deconstruction. This practice expands and complements the typical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability and comfort.

- ProVia Doors Provide ‘Curb Appeal Plus’ at Nye Park Apartments
Frank McKenna was frustrated with his doors. The owner of Nye Park Apartments in Painesville, Ohio, wanted to replace the front doors at his 66-unit complex. The situation was complicated by the fact that the front doors were encased in cement, which is typical of precast 1970s structures like his.
