The 2016 Vermont’s Greenest Commercial Building was awarded to Hartford Town Hall
The Vermont Green Building Network (VGBN) recognized the most energy efficient buildings in Vermont at the Vermont Green Building Gala, held at Main Street Landing on March 30, 2017. VGBN’s Vermont’s Greenest Building Awards are a statewide competition that honors residential and commercial buildings that meet the highest standard of demonstrated building energy performance.
The 2016 Vermont’s Greenest Commercial Building was awarded to Hartford Town Hall designed and built by Bread Loaf Corporation. The Hartford Town Hall, originally built as a school in 1895, was converted to Town Office in 1956. After years of deferred maintenance and minor remodeling efforts, the Town selected Bread Loaf Corporation to provide design and construction services for complete renovation of the existing facility. This net-zero ready building is consuming only 24% of the energy used by the average commercial building in New England (86 kBtu/sf/yr). The Hartford Town Hall is using only 21 kBtu/sf/yr.
