What happens when you're asked to build the city of tomorrow...today? Set on the rugged streets of South Boston, The Greening of Southie, is the story of a revolutionary Green Building, and the union teams who bring it to life. From wheatboard cabinetry to recycled steel, bamboo flooring, to dual-flush toilets, The Macallen Building is something different- a leader in the emerging field of environmentally friendly design. But building green has its challenges, and the job-site has its skeptics. And when things on the building start to go wrong, the young developement team has to keep the project from unraveling. Funny and poignant, The Greening of Southie, is a story of bold ideas, new envrionmentalists, and the future of the way we live.
