The Orange Mall Green Infrastructure project transformed a portion of an asphalt paved vehicular roadway into a shady, pedestrian mall in the heart of Arizona State University (ASU). This highly performing landscape creates a green heart in the center of campus, with large bioswales that not only manage a critical volume of stormwater, but also provide enhanced social and learning spaces for the University. This Sustainable Sites® Gold certified project serves as an immersive and interactive learning laboratory for the University.
