The headquarters of Honda Canada is located at 180 Honda Boulevard in Markham, Ontario. The 17.9 ha catchment is divided up into three subcatchments with separate outlets: west (6.3 ha, 53% impervious), Northeast (5.4 ha, 55% impervious), Southeast (6.4 ha, 83% impervious). Overall site imperviousness is 64%. LID practices replaced the need for a stormwater pond, allowing the facility to maintain a large sports field in the northeast portion of the site.
