I am simply thrilled to see the intentions set for Hotel Healdsburg! I absolutely love the concept of a live vegtated roof! I used to live in one when I was in Georgia adn would plant all sorts of plants on my roof! Kinda surprised this idea has not been
seen in Sebastopol yet.
Not only will they have a roof full of green plants, but it sounds as if this hotel will be as GREEN and environmentally friendly as a hotel can get! Even sports a solar powered pool! :thumbsup:
Wishin' Sebastopol had a hotel like this instead of 'fairfield' !! :idea:
"The vegetated roof planted with native succulents will capture and filter rainwater, help contain energy in the building and provide habitat for birds and insects."
"Sebastopol-resident and prominent artist Ned Khan will be one of a gallery of art pieces displayed at the hotel, and it will be fed by an underground cistern replenished by rainwater."
