TILDEN GARDENS
Intensive GreenRoof

Tilden Gardens, a group of six five-story brick and concrete buildings is located in the Connecticut Avenue Corridor at 3000 Tilden St., NW, bounded by Sedgewick & Tilden Sts. on Connecticut Ave., NW. This complex provided the first suburban-style apartments in Cleveland Park. Along with the Cathedral Mansions, the Broadmoor, the Westchester, and the Kennedy Warren, this was one of the most significant apartment complexes of 200 units or more in Washington until the 1950s.

Magco Inc., a leading roofing contractor in the Mid-Atlantic region and experienced installer of GreenRoofs handled not only the installation of the TectaGreen™ system, but also installed the plant used.
