The Green Roof Project installed two green roofs (over the east and west wings) on top of the Golda Meir Library. A crop of Sedum was planted, covering approximately 50,000 square feet.

Photos of the project's progression can be found on our Facebook page.

The Green Roof Project is a partnership with the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District.

Information about other green roofs on campus can be found at UWM's Sustainability site.

Questions about the construction may be directed to Kim Silbersack.
