Dear Editor:
RE: ‘Time to get real,’ Dec. 5.
I would like to thank Jim Dougan for his letter regarding his experiences with deconstruction.
While the practice of deconstruction is in its infancy, there has been significant research and dialogue about deconstruction (for example discussions about urban mining and circular economics).
A number of North American cities have adopted deconstruction and construction recycling ordinances.
With the support of municipalities, the deconstruction movement can continue to grow and become an integral part of the design and construction process.
