MILLPORT APARTMENTS PORTSMOUTH NH INSTALL

The sand and stone aggregate are from a local sand pit, the mixing plants are in Dover and Portsmouth, and the people who install the concrete are also local. Concrete floors were a sustainable solution and the cement is produced in Thomaston, Maine. All brick and stone has been cleaned and re-used throughout the buildings and in the landscaping, Spitzer said.Д®nergy-efficient in-floor radiant heat will be used to heat residential apartments. The majority of the 150-year-old buildings has been preserved for re-use, said Geoff Spitzer, Chinburg's senior project manager and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certified professional and Newmarket Mills senior project manager.ДЄpproximately 80 percent of all demolition debris is segregated and recycled, including all metal and most wood. The Newmarket Mills offers 50,000 square feet of commercial space and will eventually feature 112 apartments. 'Newmarket Mills is the culmination of this knowledge.' 'We've learned a lot in the process of saving these buildings,' Jen Chinburg said.

'The vision originally comes from builder Eric Chinburg's love of old mill buildings and that something which is beautiful, but falling apart, can be given a new life,' said Jen Chinburg, Newmarket Mills' marketing director.ДЇounded in 1987 by Eric Chinburg, Chinburg Builders has helped re-purpose 10 former mill sites, including Millport in Portsmouth, the Washington and Cocheco mills in Dover and the Canal Street mill in Somersworth. The Newmarket Mills may be similar to many New England redevelopment projects, but what distinguishes it is the greenest of green concepts - recycling old buildings.
