About Stamford's Green Map®

Green Map® System is an international network of locally-led mapmaking projects. Using Green Map's adaptable tools and universal iconography, mapmakers have created "portraits" of their communities in over 55 countries.

As a guide for residents and tourists, a form of reference for city planning and a visual inventory of Stamford’s sustainability assets, the green map:

  • Strengthens local-global sustainability networks
  • Expands the demand for healthier, greener choices
  • Helps successful initiatives spread to even more communities

By locating "green sites" in Stamford, we can better understand our development and potential for future growth.

Vision

It is our goal that the green map will inform us and the community about our sustainable assets and potential. Stamford's green map connects residents to our city, our neighborhood and our neighbors. Supporting local businesses, sharing public space and making informed decisions about services we already use promotes economic growth and positive perceptions. By visualizing various sites that encourage an awareness of our physical and social environment, the map will assist the Land Use Bureau, Planning & Zoning departments in future project decisions. Patterns of green growth in Stamford shown on the map will complement the Master Plan and Sustainability Amendment.
