News from Nashville - Windows Are The Soul

Sustainable living is the over-arching theme at this year's conference, and our last Nashville session was a windows discussion. More specifically, we learned (1) why you can and should retain a building's original windows, (2) the preservation, construction and energy issues that arise when you do and (3) the arguments you need to know to back up assertion No. 1.
