This 2-flat has a garden apartment with a 2-floor residence above.  Both were permitted through the Chicago Green Permit program with a 3-star rating (highest achievable).  The beautiful raingardens and catch-basins really evoke the eco-friendly attitude of this client.  There is an abundance of light streaming in through the highly insulated windows.
