MSSD Students Visit PECO Green Roof!

MSSD students in PhilaU's chapter of USGCB enjoyed an educational tour of PECO's Green Roof last Wednesday, a sustainable building project that has become a major icon in Philadelphia's storm water management crisis. The extensive and intensive garden creates a beautiful aerie above the city providing a unique eye level view of striking sky scrapers. Students have been studying the planning and construction process of this project in our Sustainable Systems class and were equipped with challenging questions for our gracious tour guide. Upcoming outings will include a tour of NoLibs Piazza and The Water Works.
