SAN DIEGO, CA, January 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) Construction Digital, the top digital media source for global construction news and information investigates two multi-family housing projects in Southern California, Casa Dominguez in Los Angeles and Ten Fifty B in San Diego.

For many, green just makes sense. It not only saves money, but provides health and social benefits as well.
