" THE FINANCIAL DATA LEARNED FROM THE DISTRICT
HOUSE OMNI GREEN ROOF IS PUSHING THE INDUSTRY
FORWARD. WE NOW KNOW IN PLAIN DOLLARS
AND CENTS THE SPECIFIC VALUE-ADD THAT THE
MARKETPLACE PUTS ON A GREEN ROOF. AND IT'S
HUGE! QUALITY GREEN ROOFS INCREASE MARKET
VALUE AND PROPERTY VALUE. PERIOD. "
MOLLY MEYER
OMNI ECOSYSTEMS CEO AND FOUNDER
now maintains a biodiverse
wildflower meadow on the
upper roof as well as seeded
lawns on lower terraces.
Overall, the average growing
media depth is 6 inches with a
total area of more than 9,000
square feet.  The meadow mix
incorporates a variety of native
plants that provide habitat for
local pollinators, some thought
to be long gone from the region. Additional environmental
benefits are derived from the
cooling effect of the green roof
on the surrounding area.
The critical take-away is
that the market value of the
green roof units far exceeded
the cost of the green roof. In
this case by over three times!
This project is proof positive
that green roofs are good for
people, the planet, and the
pocketbook.
