One sustainable flooring option is reclaimed wood. Significant Elements, Historic Ithaca's nonprofit architectural salvage warehouse, has salvaged wood flooring, typically available for about $2/square foot. For more information, see our website, www.significantelements.org.
Good luck with your project!

Hey all, My husband and I are laying flooring in our attic. We're interested in using local wood if we can, if it's not too pricey. We'd also like to stay away from products with glues and other chemicals that off-gas. Any one have suggestions, or know who'd be a good resource to ask? many thanks!
