Greenfab's First Modular Green Home in Seattle

Today we attended Greenfab's Modular Home Craning Day. And it was awesome!

Greenfab, a local Developer, offers homes that balance sustainability with affordability and design. Their goal is to offer a better way of living for all people. Today their first modular home, after being prepped yesterday in a staging area, was craned into place in the Jackson Place neighborhood. There were six total modules for this home and each one was lifted off a truck by a large crane and put onto the foundation already built on the site.

Greenfab focuses on prefabricated homes because they are precision-built in a controlled factory environment designed to increase efficiencies, save resources and reduce costs. While the prefab home is being constructed in a factory, the site work on the foundation can go on simultaneously making it a much faster build time than with traditional stick-built-on-lot homes.

Once this home is completed you will have a chance to come and check it out so please stay tuned to find out when the grand opening will be!
