Sustainable Miami Real Estate

South Florida is in the crosshairs of climate change. Rising seas, a population crowded along the coast, porous bedrock, and the relatively common occurrence of tropical storms put more real estate and people at risk from storm surges aggravated by sea level rise in Florida, than any other state by far.

But some leading architects such as Max Strang are paving the way for sustainable architecture here in South Florida. Higher sea walls, smarter home technology, solar panels for energy storage, lighting design, and even water filtration systems are just some of the ways homes can be more sustainable in South Florida.
