An Able Green Design

摘要

Blind from birth, wendy wunsch was already living with cerebral palsy when a savage attack left her partially paralyzed' 17 years ago. But those hurdles can't stop her: "My brain is very much alive," Wunsch says. "I still get together with neighbors." Which is easy now that she's renting one of 13 units designed and reserved for disabled tenants in San Jose, California's innovative and green 35-unit Gish Family Apartments. Some of her neighbors are autistic, others have Down syndrome, and many, like Wunsch, use a wheelchair.
