Well, New York City has the resources anyway, so I'm not surprised here. It's indeed a bold gesture to be willing to shell out more money just to go green in managing stormwater. It's really up to our local governments to decide which of the stormwater management practices they will adapt. For sure they will choose the best one that suits our needs. There are other alternatives anyway, not just putting up plant beds.
