U-Haul Moving and Storage of New Center in Detroit was recently featured in the 2013 AMERCO Virtual Analyst and Investor Webcast. CEO Joe Shoen began the webcast by showcasing one of U-Haul Company's sustainability initiatives: adaptive building reuse.

Adaptive building reuse is the process of reusing an existing site or building for a purpose other than that for which it was built or designed. Adaptive building reuse has been part of U-Haul Company's business plan since 1973. Since then, U-Haul has purchased and rehabilitated more than 1,000 buildings.

The former NBC-Nabisco building, built in 1920, is the most recent U-Haul adaptive building-reuse project. In the webcast, Joe also reaffirmed U-Haul Company's commitment to Detroit and being "part of the solution, not part of the problem."
