Project DescriptionThere are two bioswales on the front lawn of Gesu school which are intended to capture water from the roof of the school and route it into one of two rain gardens. These bioretention ponds are calculated to hold water from a 100-year storm. In the courtyard, Gesu created six, 30” high planters for a total of 1,617.5 cubic feet of volume to capture roof water. 42 downspouts have been redirected so rainwater permeates to groundwater. Gesu has a small rain garden on Oak Drive.
