Murdoch de Greeff Inc. designed the rainwater management system for this small commercial building.

The design approach was to integrate rain water management features into the site that would manage building and parking lot runoff in a cost effective manner.  A linear rain garden was developed to manage roof top runoff, while permeable pavement was used to manage parking lot runoff.  To control costs, the permeable paving was limited to the drive isle and manages runoff and pollution from the surrounding parking stalls which drain towards the permeable paving.
