In Pictures: New homes offer more options in urban living

by | Feb 2, 2015

*The original version of this article incorrectly described the landscaping as “zero landscaping.”

The finishing touches are being added to the Gin and Tonic House project.  The two homes that make up the development are designed for residents looking for more options in urban living.  The homes have native landscaping, consisting of low maintenance desert plants native to Utah.  While the homes aren’t built to LEED standards, they are heavily insulated, have energy-star appliances and use LED lights throughout.  Each house is just under 2,000 square feet and has three bedrooms and two full and one half baths.
