The complex hosts eight traditional green roof systems and five nontraditional systems. It is among the only sites in the nation where you can see and compare so many different green roof systems growing side by side. The group will meet in Harlem to catch the bus (a short ride) to Randall’s Island for a 4:00-5:00 p.m. tour. Please contact Martha at martha.powers@parks.nyc.gov to RSVP and to receive more details.
