Adult Program: The Green Roof Home on Meriden, the 20 year journey
Main Library
Monday, Aug. 1, 6:00-7:00 PM
What happens when someone with no training and very little money sets out to build one of the first green-roof homes in the state of New Jersey, with his own hands? Twenty years ago, James Michael Reilly bought a piece of land on Meriden Road to do just that. It's a story of persistence, despair, hope, inspiration, and help from unexpected places. A professional actor by trade, Jim is the designer and (with his wife Nancy Candea) the builder of Underhill, the home you see today.
