Cities Alive
SINCE MONDAY NIGHT, we’ve been blogging and tweeting from the Cities Alive Conference, keeping you updated with news and views from this North American gathering of Green Roof Professionals. I hope you caught our first installment of photos, pics of the green roof on Toronto City Hall a couple of days ago. Since then, I’ve had the chance to meet some really interesting people from all over the globe doing similar work in the world. I suppose that some of them will be surfing over here to Green Apple Pie to check out some of the media that we’ve been making available from the conference. So here are some shots of the Robertson Building at 215 Spadina Avenue (we already uploaded photographs of the lovely living wall at the Robertson Building exactly a month ago in Green Details). Enjoy! And stay tuned — we will continue to post still pics of green features, and hopefully we’ll manage to upload a little video footage of some of the lectures, as well.
EXCLUSIVE! CHECK OUT THESE pipin’ hot pictures of the new Green Roof on top of the rotunda at Toronto City Hall. This week Toronto is hosting the Cities Alive Conference, a three day symposium for everyone involved in Green Infrastructure projects across the continent. Mayor Miller addressed the audience, and then the crowd was invited to tour the roof of the building. It’s not one hundred per cent completed yet, but I was still able to take some attractive photographs before it got too dark out. Don’t miss the thirty-second video clip of the unveiling that I quickly edited and uploaded to the net. So, how do you like Green Roofs now?
