Property Developments
Last November, more than 70 community leaders gathered to celebrate the grand opening of Laurel Crest Apartment Homes in Lancaster -a 72-unit workforce housing community in Los Angeles County. The green building of this transit-oriented community incorporates more sustainable elements than any of Jamboree's previous buildings - a practice it began nearly five years ago. It combines environmental sensitivity, energy efficiency and affordable housing under one roof, and demonstrates that building green improves the financial feasibility of developments, financially assists residents by reducing their utility bills, promotes resident health through reduced pollution, and underscores Jamboree's responsibility to pursue increased sustainability of the community.
