BWP's EcoCampus

The EcoCampus uses many sustainable landscape technologies integrated into a single industrial campus.

The EcoCampus Vision

The EcoCampus vision started with the need to relocate, modify and replace existing facilities to achieve greater employee efficiency and safety, improve traffic circulation, provide off-street parking and increase security. The EcoCampus incorporates sustainable elements, softens the exterior look of the site to appropriately blend into an urban setting, and maintains its industrial purpose to continue to add economic vitality to the community.
