The winners of the recent Houston Land/Water Sustainability Forum´s Low Impact Development Design Competition in Urban Design will present their challenges and discuss how their project can be had at a lower cost to developers, which bodes well for their rapid adoption and implementation.

The entry "EaDo Promenade" will show how LID technologies can be used to have far reaching impact and be an educational resource for communities. In the entry, team members paired localized hydrological strategies that capture and use rain water with pedestrian oriented design, urban ecology and integrated architectural design guidelines that could leverage a neighborhood redevelopment and create new environments.
