Our Work at Brooklyn’s Historic Green-Wood Cemetery

Construction is underway on the Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavers (PICP) that eDesign Dynamics designed for capturing runoff in The Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn, NY. Once constructed, the PICP practices will manage up to 50,000 gallons of runoff per rain event, reducing wet weather flows to the City’s combined sewer system.  The New York Times recently covered some of this work — specifically our Pond Sensor and the Permeable Pavers that facilitate stormwater resilience.

EDD’s Theo Barbagianis (in the blue hat in the pics below) was excited to join Green-Wood Cemetery staff and funder NYS Environmental Facilities Corporation recently on a tour of EDD-designed green infrastructure projects!
