Member Profile | Wathen-Castanos:
For more than 70 years, the Wathen name has represented excellence in home-building in the Central San Joaquin Valley. But today, Wathen-Castanos, Inc. faces a whole new set of challenges. The cost of energy, in both economic and ecological terms, is on the rise. Wathen-Castanos has responded by reinventing the way they build.
Rather than simply tacking on a few “feel-good” features, Wathen is taking a systemic approach in making their homes extremely efficient, including pursuing Build It Green’s GreenPoint Rated consumer label for 100% of the homes in the thousand home Harlan Ranch Community development.
