  • Deconstruction reuses what would be demolished
    By Kate White, wvagazette.com

    HURRICANE, W.Va. -- A dilapidated house in Hurricane is being taken down, but not by a bulldozer. Instead, it's being deconstructed piece by piece as part of Sarah Halstead's effort to make her home state more environmentally friendly.

    "It's a hip concept," said Halstead, the executive director of WVGreenWorks. "It's all about reclaiming and reusing as much as possible and diverting as much as possible from the landfill."
