We're Smart! Watch How...

Revolution Recovery was asked to participate in the launch of Philadelphia’s “Smart City, Smart Choice” video contest.  We had a great time putting together this short video that gives some reasons of why we love doing business in Philadelphia.

Revolution on The Grid

The October 2011 issue of Grid Magazine has a focus on construction and demolition material recycling, and the cover story is about Revolution Recovery.  The issue also includes the “greenprint” insert with information on the Delaware Valley Green Building Council’s 2011 Leadership Awards Winners, which Revolution Recovery is honored to be a recipient.  Follow these links to read the online digital edition or to pick up a copy at a location near you.

Constructing the Wissahickon

Germantown Academy is wrapping up the new construction at their campus, where Revolution Recovery has been providing recycling services for the project.  The current installation in their Art Center Gallery is titled “Constructing the Wissahickon” by Leah Frankel. 


Leah came to Revolution Recovery to source materials for the project without knowing some of the materials in our yard are from the Germantown Academy jobsite.  She used reclaimed materials to create a topographical display of the Wissahickon watershed.  The exhibit is up through September 30, 2011; gallery hours are 8am-5pm Monday through Friday.  For more information of the project and the artist, visit Leah Frankel’s blog and website.
