Growing with Green Infrastructure: Water Flow Site Plan A Design Proposal for BCS and BNS 94,550 gallons Leslie Velazquez and Anna Yie Green Infrastructure Design and Build Studio Patio areas with seating Gita Nandan, Elliott Maltby, and Frederick Wolf and tables for class or group work Summer 2019 | Pratt Institute

Design Highlights Our design is about growing with green infrastructure and structuring the curriculum and learning Intensive green roof with experience around an interactive, scientific, fun, stormwater capture system that has multiple walking path (+ 65’) educational, environmental, and health benefits including: Solar panels over green roof • Managing 100% of stormwater from a 1.2” rainfall event The design uses the natural grade of the site to gather and direct stormwater into a large native • Solar energy system to provide school with clean electricity on site rain . • Continuous play area with increased farm school space and active green features Green Infrastructure Stormwater Management Extensive green roof In a 1.2” rainfall event with solar (+ 23’)

Solar Power System Solar Power Info: Intensive Green Roof: system ● 90 kW system 22,560 gallons of stormwater ● Estimated annual power output: managed 123,900 kWh generated 123,900 ● Upfront cost: $427,00 kWh annually ○ Costs with incentives: $264,000 Solar-Green Roof: ○ Payback period: 13 years 16,270 gallons of stormwater Aquaponics outdoor managed classroom space (+ 16’) Under Solar Green Roof: Permeable This combination solar and green ● 7,900 ft² of resilient and adaptive plant pavers roof generates power for the school Aquaponics Roof: while also working to control species 5,420 gallons of stormwater Stormwater feature and stormwater runoff. ● Extensive (6” depth) to reduce roof load managed

● Manages 16,270 gallons of stormwater Permeable Schoolyard Ground: Permeable in 1.2” rainfall play surfaces 24,160 gallons of stormwater : Delosperma cooperi, Carex flacca, Schizachyrium scoparium, Achillea millefolium, Sedum aizoon, Sedum middendorffianum managed park space ● Partnership with Trust For Bridge to adjacent Public Land Rain Garden: ● Schoolyard elements include 26,137 gallons of stormwater greenwall, permeable managed pavement, permeable field, and garden DIMATTINA ● Bridge over BQE to connect BQE PLAYGROUND PROPOSED school to DiMattina BRIDGE
