Project Profile:

Metropolitan Place

Project Summary

Gravelpave2 is used as a gravel stabilization matrix and as a cushion for the pedestrians and joggers. Gravelpave2 is more pleasant to walk on than unsupported aggregate or concrete. Phase II of the project (an additional rooftop garden) - slated for installation in 2005 - will also incorporate Gravelpave2 in a similar application.
