Various types of pavers are used throughout Mary Bartelme Park. Different colored pavers can function as way finding tools. The white pavers in the picture shown to the right provide for a transition in a space. Additionally, the white pavers used are TX Active permeable pavers. Sun rays activate the photocatalytic reaction within concrete made with TX Active and destroy organic and inorganic compounds before they have a chance to adhere to its surface. On a clear day the photocatalytic properties of the pavers clean the air, and on a rainy day their permeability allows stormwater to slowly percolate the system's surface recharging back into the ground. |
