Sustainable Concepts
Restoring the valley’s historic connection to Lake Merced is central to the sustainable concepts
underlying the design approach. As a vital link in both the district and
campus green networks, the valley offers the opportunity to create a living laboratory on campus—reestablishing
native plant communities over time and restoring natural drainage patterns to the extent possible. The valley
serves as the final destination in the campus stormwater management system that collects and filters runoff
before it leaves the site. A seasonal creek just south of the gym/recreation-wellness center—reminiscent of the stream
that once flowed through the valley—ultimately would carry water into Lake Merced.
