Chicago (Albany Park)
BEFORE WORK:
A proponent of sustainable landscape practices, this client said, "Out with grass!"
AFTER:
We created a rain garden large enough to manage rain water coming off of 1,000 sq. ft. of roof surface with two downspouts.
Puddling and ponding on the public walkway was successfully managed by creating an attractive dry stream bed.
When the client called us in, the architect had already designed their green roof to be built with Live Roof modules. We installed the roof and have cared for it ever since!
Raised beds made with galvaluminum siding and filled with organic vegetable soil were built in 2015 to replace the original repurposed barn wood beds that had begun to rot.
