New South Bronx Community Green Roof to Benefit Local Environment

Xero Flor America (XFA) of Durham, N.C., announced the selection of its XeroFlor Green Roof System for a new 7,350-square-foot green roof installed atop the main facility of The Point Community Development Corporation (The Point), a non-profit organization that promotes the cultural and economic revitalization of the Hunts Point section of the South Bronx in New York.

The project, which included repair of the structural roof and a new waterproof roof membrane as well as the green roof, was supported by funding from the New York State Office of the Attorney General and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
