This facility, designed for a private client, houses an indoor bowling alley and tennis court, and has approximately 3,000 square feet of roof area. Surrounding the building’s rooftop shuffleboard court, is a green roof featuring a rainwater harvesting system that collects and filters 20,000 gallons of rooftop runoff. The runoff is diverted to a pump tank that distributes it for irrigating the estate property, which includes a golf course. The green roof and rain water harvesting system were designed by G.R.A.S.S., a sister company of the Onion Flats collaborative that is revolutionizing eco-friendly green building development in Philadelphia. The building architect for this project was Michael Barclay.
