This report by TRCA highlights the multiple LID installations located at Edwards Gardens, a botanical garden located at 777 Lawrence Avenue East in Toronto, Ontario and owned by the city. The retrofit of the Edwards Gardens parking lot introduces several new technologies to add to the existing Low Impact Development (LID) practices onsite – an extensive [[Green roof]] and a [[Rainwater harvesting]] system, along with [[Bioretention]], [[Permeable pavement]], [[Infiltration trenches]], [[Exfiltration trenches]], and [[Swales]]. The stormwater management benefits of the LID practices implemented onsite help to improve the quality and reduce the volume of runoff discharging to Wilket Creek, nearby. To read more about the various LID practices at Edwards Gardens and their performance, click the button above.
