At long last, the fruits of our labors - SFPUC Urban Watershed Management Program staff (yeah, that includes me!) and all the many passionate and concerned citizens of the great City of San Francisco - is here! Over 200 participants attended three community charrettes held from 2007 to 2009. Citizen input influenced heavily the SFPUC's subsequent exploration and analysis of green stormwater - or Low Impact Design-based - opportunities throughout the City's eight watershed basins.
In my brief time with the SFPUC UWMP, I enjoyed working closely with Rosey Jencks and Rachel Kraai to put this document together. I have to admit, though, I played a relatively minor role in the project. But I loved everything about the project and the process!
The Drew School, in collaboration with famed botanist-turned-designer Patrick Blanc, recently unveiled its living wall. This installation is the newest living wall in the City. Read more about it here: Drew School's New Roots
