A garage, now torn down, had blocked the view of Blue Heron Lake.
Chalk up another house — this one at 455 Rowland Drive — gone green, thanks to Greenovative Design and Engineering. However, that is not the real story. The real story is what the house was like before Keith Hall hired Larry Madrid and Greenovative.
Hall had inherited the one-story block house after his uncle died and it was not necessarily a blessing, Hall said. The problem was, his uncle was a hoarder, and when Hall and Madrid explored the house, it was virtually impossible to navigate.
