The Rebuilding of Greensburg

On Sunday, June 15th at 9 PM Sundance Channel will be debuting the first segment of the 13-part documentary Greensburg. This show will chronical the rebuilding of this Kansas town as a "green" town following the devastating tornado that destroyed the town just over a year ago. Greensburg will be the first city to mandate that all buildings over 4000 sq. ft. be certified LEED Platinum. Another unique feature? The Business Incubator - an innovative building that will house affordable office space for start ups and retail. Other features of homes and buildings in the town will feature geothermal heating, Eco Blocks and ample greenspaces. The website features behind the scenes information on the families, government officials and builders that are part of this project.
