This report, which was prepared for the Main South Community Development Corporation, will look at possible ways to redevelop the abandoned Crompton and Knowles Loom Works building into a sustainable building within the Main South community. Through research into the community, the building and modern green technologies we were able to identify valuable information and various sustainable technologies that could provide a starting point for Main South CDC's renovation project.
