Private Residence, Long Island


Highview designed and installed a 150 square foot extensive green roof on a new outdoor shower & sauna building for a client in Wainscott, NY. Extensive sedum mats grown locally on Long Island provided beautiful, instant plant coverage. Custom metal edging fabricated in Brooklyn created a perfect fit for the unique pitch of this small roof. At this scale, the green roof will absorb stormwater runoff, provide a habitat for local pollinators, protect the roof membrane, and beautify an otherwise drab, flat roof visible from many rooms in the main residence.
