FREE GREENROOFS FOR “GREEN-IT-YOURSELF” NEW YORKERS

Learn how to build a lightweight DIY greenroof on your home and save thousands of dollars, reduce your energy bills, get a tax abatement to make costs disappear, and live healthier in NYC! Putting a greenroof on a brownstone-sized roof costs $2,000 - $4,000 when you do-it-yourself, or about $3-8 per square foot.

What: Green-It-Yourself : Greenroof Workshop is teaming with Eco-Brooklyn to teach local home and building owners how to take advantage of NY State tax incentives and make New York a healthier place to live. The Greenroof Workshop guides participants step-by-step through the planning, design and building processes.

Who: Atom Cianfarani and Lori Gibbs, both built innovative and extensive eco-friendly design projects at Habana Outpost in Brooklyn. They have now teamed up to create: Green-It-Yourself: Greenroof Workshop to make green projects more affordable for everyone.
