We're honored to work with #RVALandDevelopment - a talented team committed to #sustainabledevelopment and designing resilient #stormwatermanagement systems. The vegetated roofs below - Blythwood on Huntington (installed in 2013) and Sherwood on Huntington (installed in 2017) – were part of the on-site stormwater plan to help mitigate urban flooding. Now, these #greenroofs help retain up to 92,000 litres of rainfall! See original R.V. Anderson post here https://bit.ly/4dCYzB4 Kudos to R.V. Anderson Associates Limited, Concert Properties, Tridel, Kirkor Architects and Planners and Janet Rosenberg & Studio on landmark sustainable architecture. Imagine if our cities had vegetated roofs on all our available rooftops. Imagine what it would look and feel like! Should we do all we can to improve #climateresilience? What do you say?

Recent rainfall events in #Toronto have brought to light the importance of thoughtful and resilient #stormwatermanagement systems. 💦 On July 24th, the #RVALandDevelopment team and Next Level Stormwater Management took the opportunity to check in on the performance of the #greenroof systems installed on two of our completed development projects with Tridel and Kirkor Architects and Planners. These green roof systems were installed roughly 7 and 10 years ago, respectively. This was a great opportunity to proactively check in on how our projects are performing long after the project is designed and installed, as well as learn from Next Level about the current maintenance procedures and performance of these systems. Green roofs help to mitigate #climatechange, provide biodiversity, and manage stormwater – all while making our urban environments look vibrant and lush! 🌿 To learn more, check out: bit.ly/4dcUUtk . . . #RVAProjects #greeninfrastucture #sustainablebuilding #Sustainability #UrbanTransformation #CommunityDevelopment #Canada
