Sustainable Building and Eco-Green Community Living 

An interesting concept raised is the opportunity to utilize this property for the building of a green eco-community.  Curtis L. Biggar, Architect & Certified Green ProfessionalTM, says, “Green architecture is architecture that is appropriate to its geographic location, its particular site and its orientation to the Sun.  Green buildings will now be built & certified under the NATIONAL GREEN BUILDING STANDARD, Leads v.3, Energy Star and other emerging certifiable programs.  Passive and natural energy designs will lead to near zero energy costs and will allow buildings to be constructed off-grid on remote properties.  Sustainability and long term cost benefits are the reward for green buildings.”  www.biggarmemorials.com

Conservation sensitive housing developments are springing up throughout the USA. Examples of this can be found at http://ecovillageithaca.org/evi and at  the  Kettle Moraine Land Trust, which has a significant project underway near Pewaukee, WI. http://www.kmlandtrust.org,

This is a rare opportunity to add a piece of Wisconsin to your investment portfolio.  Preservation and/or development decisions may not be as urgent as ownership decisions.  However, excellent investment opportunities do require decisive action.
