Buckman Heights
Runoff from the building roof is piped under the lawn area and the sidewalk to the central courtyard planters. The planters act as infiltration basins allowing stormwater to soak into the ground. Water tolerant species including spiraea, iris and Oregon grape are planted in a Japanese holly border. The border hedge gives the planters a formal landscaped appearance not normally associated with stormwater facilities.
