The authors and their wives lived in two of Portlands beautiful, leafy neighborhoods. Their children were grown, so they no longer felt their homes were consistent with their environmental and personal values. They contemplated a different way of living, and over four and a half years, their dreams coalesced into Ankeny Row, a community with six energy-efficient homes structured for community interaction and to permit graceful aging. Sustainable Homes for the 21st Century tells the story of what they learned in the process and provides guidance on how you can make similar dreams come true.
