From Fallen Trees to Finished Spaces: Kingston Upcycles Timber
New York Heartwoods founder Megan Offner salvages trees slated for a Kingston townhouse project, milling them into about 8,000 linear feet of boards used as baseboards, built-in shelves and window trim in the new apartments. The upcycled wood costs roughly 25% more than premilled lumber, but the developer plans to market the trees’ story as a sustainability selling point.
