Project Description:
This project converted several "green spaces"- or areas predominantly covered in grass- to areas that would require less water and fuel for maintenance. The Library Oak Lawn, the Van Matre Lawns, and the Harry Griffith Hall (HGH) Courtyard Lawns were all converted, and water usage for these areas is estimated to have decreased from 40,900 gallons per year to 5,539 gallons per year- now representing only 13% of the previous usage.
