The Philadelphia Zoo
This green street project resulted from the opportunity to add additional stormwater management to a Philadelphia Zoo project consisting of streetscape improvements, a private cost water/sewer job, and new parking garage.
PWD installed rain gardens along the north side of Girard Avenue between 38th street and 39th street. They are located in the lawn area between the sidewalk and the Zoo Giraffe parking lot. Subsurface stone infiltration trenches and a stormwater planter were also installed along the south side of Girard Avenue and by the parking garage.
