Alive Structures is a Landscape Design Firm based in Brooklyn, NY. Our team of committed environmentalists have a practical plan to improve air and water quality, reduce energy dependence, and increase natural habitat and open green space in New York City. Alive Structures is more than just a business - we're active members of the environmental community here in New York City. This blog is for people to gain access to information about green roofs, native plants, green walls, keep up with all of our current projects, and share our experiences in both nature and the city. In addition look out for gardening tips, ideas about designs, political and cultural events, and great photos of flowers!
