An article from the Rocky Mountain News, reports that the busiest home-construction site in the Denver area this week may be a stretch of road east of Interstate 225 and north of Colfax Avenue in Aurora. As part of the Habitat for Humanity Home Builders Blitz 2008, Renaissance Homes started a seven-day project to build four starter homes along East 18th Place. In addition to Renaissance, others participating are Fuller Custom Homes, Sattler Homes, Malibu Homes, Austin Signature Homes and Harvard Communities. According to Heather Lafferty, executive director of Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver, building the small, energy-efficient homes normally would take three months. In regards to the builders, she said, "On one hand, they are not quite as busy as usual, so it's easier to find the time to devote to this. But on the other hand, they have been hit pretty hard by this downturn, so they have smaller crews to call on. What they all have in common is they stepped up to the plate."
