Wishrock is deeply committed to sustainability, incorporating a philosophy of long term sustainability it its development and management of all of its properties and in its organizational activities and culture. As a preservation developer, rehabilitating existing but outdated buildings, we reuse existing materials and infrastructure reducing the energy and resources required to manufacture and transport new materials to create new buildings and reducing sprawl. Wishrock’s development activities meet or exceed stringent standards for sustainability and green building, most often being certified enterprise green communities. As one of several affordable housing development organizations on the leading edge of sustainability, having recognized both the responsibility and the opportunity, Wishrock’s sustainability department works with its developers on design and development of new projects, oversees the existing portfolio to reduce energy and water consumption, and participates with other leaders in the industry to create innovative solutions and opportunities.
