BROOKLYN BOTANIC GARDENS

 

Completed in November 2011, the 9,700sf green roof atop the Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s new Visitor Center by architecture firm Weiss/Manfredi creates a dynamic and seamless transition between the building and the BBG’s surrounding landscape.  The sloped green roof is planted with a richly textured variety of grasses and flowering perennials. New York Green Roofs consulted on the plant palette with landscape architecture firm HM White Site Architects and provided the installation as well as ongoing maintenance services.
