Congratulations to all of our winners!
The Green Roof & Wall Awards of Excellence was
held on October 7th at the 13th Annual CitiesAlive in
Brooklyn, New York. We celebrated the most outstanding
examples of green roof and wall design, policy, research,
ad design, and corporate leadership.

his year's exceptional people and projects are doing everything from growing
food on an urban home, to achieving net zero water usage in a public park. These
awards acknowledge excellence in innovative green roof and wall design; raise
awareness of the multiple benefits that green infrastructure provides; honor
individuals who have made outstanding contributions to green roof research and supportive public policies; and highlight companies and people who have been champions
of the green roof industry.
We invite everyone to submit your projects now to be considered for the 2016 awards
