Waterloo City Hall
Waterloo, Ontario
16,800 square feet or 1600 square metres
Completed in September 2005 using Xero Flor's lightweight green roof system
No rooftop irrigation: Xero Flor’s extentisive system has very low irrigation needs, is lightweight and particularly suited for this retrofit.. Protection of roof membrane from ultraviolet radiation and extreme temperature fluctuations is extending the lifespan of roof.
"We are pleased with our green roof installation at City Hall. Green roofs help with community ecosystem restoration – storm water management (both quality and quantity) air pollution reduction, heat island reduction, reduction in energy use, increase in green space and extension of roof life. We hope this project will inspire others."
– Karen Moyer, Waterloo City Hall, Environmental Coordinator
