Green Roof at 132 E. Delaware Ave. |
The Landmark team designed this partial "extensive" green roof for this urban construction project, which primarily helps to address Stormwater Management and Water Quality standards.
Green roof systems offers natural function and beauty, while helping to reduce storm water runoff and the urban heat island effect. They also provide noise reduction, fire retardation, and habitat creation.
We applaud the owner for installing a green roof -- a good and "sustainable" thing to do. Owners of green roofs also benefit from cost efficiencies from roof life extension and energy conservation.
