Low Impact Development Methods Save the Day
Springwoods Village
Springwoods Village is the nation’s largest Low Impact Development, nestled on approximately 2,000 acres on the southern bank of Spring Creek at the confluence of Interstate 45, the Hardy Toll Road and the Grand Parkway on Houston’s north side.
The Sazerac House
The Sazerac House, a new interactive cocktail museum, just opened in October of 2019. The 48,000 square-foot, historic building stands on the corner of Canal and Magazine Streets. The historic building dates to the 1860s, just yards away from the original Sazerac Coffee House.
New Pumps for Pond
Three new pumps, a “smart” controller and SCADA monitoring makes this detention pond a fully monitored system that is easy-to-operate and provides operational savings and peace of mind to the property owner.
Martinez Professional Building
Martinez Professional Building II is a .95 acre commercial site for professional offices. The engineers were able to take advantage of using Harris County’s Low Impact Development (LID) regulations by increasing the time of concentration of storm water on this site. They achieved this by using Low Impact Development methods verses designing a traditional detention / retention pond or underground detention system.
Merritt Road
A Thin Green Line Between Love and Hate
From Gray to Green to Smart
While material quality, engineering and product life expectancy have changed over the past 6,000 years the way stormwater is conveyed and managed has not evolved much since the days of hand spun clay pipes in the early drainage systems of 4000 BC Babylon in current day Iraq. Like today, the desire for cleanliness drove the movement.
