The Sustainable Sites Initiative (SITES) is gaining momentum with an announcement they have certified the nation’s first three projects.  As a landscape architect professional, would you become a SITES AP?

Hi Oona, I was involved in the Redwood Empire Chapter when I lived in Sonoma County. It did help me with networking and learning about specific sustainability topics. Suzan

Are you involved in your local USGBC chapter?  How has it benefited your career, if at all?

LEED GA – is it worth it?

Mr. Lin,

Just what I wanted…more green streets!

Dear All

I am working In Dubai,,,on my own projects ,,,,,and I am looking for ,,,landscaping hand sketchers ,,,and landscape architect ….please send what do u have to the following e mail kiwanlandscape@gmail.com

Thanks. It looks good! Now for a big rain to see it in action!

new shiny pics I took today..

Water is allowed to enter then exit the raingarden farther down grade…. in a small to medium event most precip will be captured and perc in these areas. It is Florida so larger rain events will be allowed to overflow and enter into the existing culverts at intersections.

So does the water go through in the right hand corner of each cell? Or is each cell a separate containment area?

OK- let’s save the world!  Glad to be among the initiated here…

Here is some pics from the project I described below- this was from 3 months ago and is coming along nicely. Note the re-used granite that we incorporated from existing curbs on the street. The sidewalk is alternating concrete broom finish and shell agreggate wash.

Greet links, they helped a lot on a recent project. Thanks!
