1998 Built Green Award Winners

Three local homebuilders earned top Built Green awards last year, bringing the Built Green concept to the forefront of the homebuilding industry.  US Home was named Built Green Homebuilder of the Year with nearly 1000 new Built Green homes in the metro Denver area.  Jeff Whiton, US Home President, noted that "This isn't just about selling more homes.  This is about keeping our customers satisfied and making a lasting contribution to our community.

John Kurowski of Kurowski Development Company was named Custom Build Green Builder of the Year.  Kurowski believes all builders share a duty to build the best houses they possibly can.  "We have the technology to design and build homes that save energy," he says.  "We need to do just that."

The Built Green Home of the Year award went to McStain Enterprises for their home at the Lowry Parade of Homes.  Their Built Green home combines state-of-the-art systems with the country charm of a Victorian cottage. McStain Enterprises has been pushing the envelope of green design for many years, thus gaining national attention as Built Green builders. 

Our congratulations to these award winning builders.
