Binghamton High School in Binghamton, NY needed a multi-purpose field on top of a parking garage, and Airfield Systems Airdrain delivered the lightest, strongest, most efficient drainage solution available today. At 3 lbs. per 7 square foot and rated at over 33,000 pounds per square foot regardless of the location. Rooftop fields are gaining popularity, and Binghamton is utilizing 47,000 square feet of valuable playing surface without having to expand the grounds on top of a parking garage.
