Sustainable concepts distinguish this building and are extensions of Heifer’s methodology to end world hunger: education comes through environmental connections. The site, among the largest brownfield recoveries in the state, was once bisected by a rail yard. Existing warehouse masonry structures were crushed and used for site fill, bricks were reclaimed for paving, and 97% of materials were recycled. Reclaimed material savings paid for the entire demolition.
