The recipe for zero carbon affordable housing design standards may be held within a guidebook released by city officials in Boston on April 22.
Part of the city’s green buildings initiatives program—as well as Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh's initiative to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050—the 2020 Zero Emissions Building guide is a collaboration between Thornton Tomasetti, Bensonwood, Placetailor, Elton Hampton Architects and city planning and environmental offices.
