DALLAS, TX: 3/07 – Representatives from New Zealand were in town recently to tour Huffines Signature communities of Savannah and Providence. The tour, sponsored by the James Hardie Company, was part of a 13-city United States tour to view unique and exciting new home designs that feature Hardie's product - Hardiplank - an innovative siding which provides low maintenance, but doesn't sacrifice the beauty and character of wood. The fiber-cement siding resists rotting or cracking and it resists damage from rain and hail.

This is the second year the tour has visited the communities. Last year's representatives were from Australia, and the Huffines Communities™ were so well-received that they were included again this year. Proof positive of the innovative and eye-catching new home designs featured in the two exciting neighborhoods.
