Another LiveRoof Green Roof Boosts Stormwater Management at Loyola University Chicago

In an ongoing effort to promote sustainability by reducing the volume and velocity of stormwater runoff, Loyola University Chicago is installing a green roof on Cuneo Hall, a new academic building. The 2,400-square-foot installation is Loyola’s seventh green roof.

The LiveRoof® Hybrid Green System from LiveRoof, LLC (Spring Lake, Mich.) was selected for the project. LiveRoof was previously used for the 7,650-square foot green roof installed on the Mundelein College building, a historical landmark on the Loyola University Chicago campus, during a 2009 renovation project. LiveRoof was also installed in June 2011for the 5,400-square-foot green roof atop the new Norville Center for Intercollegiate Athletics.
