August 22, 2007 – “Bay Area Gets on Top of Green Roof Trend” by Janis Mara
From SpecRight News, NRCA.com
Green roof systems are springing up all over the San Francisco Bay Area and elsewhere. One of the region’s
newest and most prominent green roof systems is on the Academy of Sciences, which was completed in late
August. Firms like PGAdesign in Oakland are doing a booming business thanks to building owners and managers
looking to lower their energy costs and improve their structures’ waterproofing and drainage. American Soil and
Stone Products, meanwhile, claims it has fielded more than 100 inquiries about green from businesses and
individuals in just the first eight months of this year. Green Roofs for Healthy Cities President Larry Peck
states: “Living roofs grew some 25 percent in North America in 2006, and I anticipate the rate will increase. A
green roof will virtually eliminate heat gain in the building.” Most green roofs are being installed atop commercial
buildings and public structures such as schools. When they appear on residential buildings, it usually is atop
multifamily properties like apartment or condominium complexes.
