Green Trailblazer Tom Hoyt to Offer Green Tips at Conference

Hoyt will discuss his success in guiding the core business strategy of McStain Enterprises, which he co-owns with his wife, Caroline, to incorporate green building practices and how other builders can do the same.

McStain Enterprises helped create a number of master-planned communities in the Colorado Front Range. Tom and Caroline have built over 8,000 residential units and multiple commercial buildings that incorporate leading-edge community planning and environmental features. Founded as a small design-oriented custom builder, McStain Enterprises has become a $100 million builder/developer practice.

Hoyt also is a founder of the Boulder Home Builders Association, which later merged with the Home Builders Association of Metropolitan Denver. He currently serves as a trustee for the Colorado Nature Conservancy.

The NAHB conference is being held in the heart of the city that gave birth to the green building movement, and some 500 attendees are expected to be on hand to exchange green building ideas, see the latest in green building products and technologies from 67 exhibitors and participate in educational sessions on green mortgages, green land development, water conservation, trends in green building design and more.

Tours will be available on the first day of the conference, including visits to award-winning infill subdivisions and Austin’s first SMART housing development. The conference is being held at The Hilton Austin Hotel and Convention Center, which is located at 500 East 4th Street in downtown Austin.
