Working toward the goals of sustainability and urban-revitalization, Sherwood collaborated with Solomon ETC/WRT on the overall civil design of a new elderly formerly-homeless residential center funded by the Community Housing Partnership and the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation. Focusing on green design per the Enterprise Foundation’s Green Communities Criteria, Sherwood implemented cutting-edge strategies such as routing the downspout disconnect into flow-through planters for detention; using native ground cover to reduce sidewalk pavement; and planting a courtyard rain garden and swale with native species.
