Canada’s Largest Soilless Green Roof

The 9500 m² soilless vegetated green roof was designed to meet CF Sherway Gardens’ Stormwater Management Program goals for their north expansion. Installed in 2014, the green roof is one of the sustainability features that helped Sherway earn the BOMA Best Gold and LEED Certification.
