A banner day: High Point Neighborhood Center sign up at Nucor

This was originally supposed to happen during Sustainable West Seattle Festival weekend three weeks ago, but got postponed till today: Alex Wang from Neighborhood House wrote to let us know that the big banner to promote the High Point Neighborhood Center‘s solar array – 256 panels spanning 6,000 square feet, biggest of its kind in the state – is now up, in space donated on the west side of the West Seattle Nucor plant. Neighborhood House will be kicking off a campaign on the summer solstice to solicit sponsors for the solar panels. By the way, if you’re interested in a hard-hat construction tour of the under-construction HPNC– not just being built green, but being built LEED GoldWendy Hughes-Jelen of Green Spaces Real Estate has arranged a rare opportunity to do just that, early next Wednesday morning — find out about it (and how to RSVP) here.

    Isn’t it a little ironic for this to be posted on the building the uses most of the electricity used in West Seattle?

    No RSVP needed, but if folks are interested in events and tours along these lines they should join the meetup group. Thanks!

    It’s not so ironic that Nucor has agreed to let Neighborhood House use the space. The company is one of the largest users of recycled materials in North America.

Sorry, comment time is over.
