We are excited to announce that two neighborhoods have been chosen for the Extreme Green Neighborhood Makeover. Ten houses from Deanwood in Northeast Washington and ten houses from Shaw in Northwest Washington will receive the green makeover treatment in the coming months.
Thanks to our members, Pastor and Mrs. Newell of the New Covenant Evangelistic Center and Commissioner Sylvia C. Brown for compelling nominations that lead to our decision to choose these neighborhoods.
In the coming weeks, we will be working with community partners and meeting with families in Deanwood & Shaw about their interest in participating in the Extreme Green Neighborhood Makeover. In the meantime, learn more about Deanwood & Shawn on our blog…

great! thanks.
I love carbonfreedc’s logo so much it makes me giddy.
(I used to do web/graphic design and still geek out about it once in a while).
Jimbo,
Thanks! We still geek out over the logo too. When it came time to create a new one for the Extreme Green Neighborhood Makeover we knew we had a tough act to follow. Hopefully it makes the grade.
