The living roof over the Garage Apartments demonstrates how even a small roof can make a big impact on the ecological health of a city. This is a positive step towards developing an urban community that supports native pollinator populations, reduces heat island effect and allows the rain to evaporate and plants to transpire similar to as they would in nature.
