Months after announcing plans for an upscale apartment development adjacent to State Mutual Stadium, Rome real estate developer Charlie Williams now says the RiverPoint apartments will be Rome's first "green" large housing project. Williams is purchasing approximately 6 acres for the development from Northwest Ga. LLC. Williams is working with the Southface Energy Institute to build the apartment complex to EarthCraft construction standards. EarthCraft standards deal with a broad range of sustainability issues including environmental performance, indoor air quality and construction longevity.
