Where can I see an installed rainwater harvesting system in Austin?
There are several non-residential rainwater harvesting systems in Austin that are available for public viewing. The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center at 4801 La Crosse Avenue has a 70,000 gallon rainwater storage tank that supplies almost 10 to 15 percent of water to the center’s landscape. The H-E-B store at 6900 Brodie Lane has a rainwater harvesting system with a 28,000-gallon storage capacity. The water is used for the native and adapted plants at the location. Several other locations in Austin and in other areas of the state are described in the Texas Manual on Rainwater Harvesting ( 2.42 MB).
