Whitestone Development, Inc., in partnership with Empower Community Development Corporation, Inc, announced the company’s latest residential new construction community development

HOUSTON, Sept. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Whitestone Development, Inc., in partnership with Empower Community Development Corporation, Inc, announced the company’s latest residential new construction community, Berry Square. Berry Square is the first community offering whole-home generators in every home, which aligns with the organization’s vision to create sustainable homes for all.

All homes in this newly completed development come equipped with EcoFlow Generator Systems, capable of powering homes for up to three days during outages and can be upgraded over time to run the homes completely independent of the power grid, if desired.

First Community with Whole-Home Generators

February 2021, during Winter Storm Uri, the residents of Houston experienced a city-wide blackout that also spanned across the state of Texas. Winter Storm Uri was the second time in history that the City of Houston had experienced a complete blackout since Hurricane Alicia in 1983. Millions of residents lost power and essential utilities. Whitestone in collaboration with Kimberly Lane Properties, KLPTX, developed a solution in response to the increasing weather and electrical instability challenge Houston was facing.
