The twin office towers of Watt Plaza in Century City are the first Class A commercial high rise in Los Angeles to undergo a 100% retrofit with Falcon Waterfree urinals. The resulting 2.2 million-gallon per year water savings at this single building provides welcome relief for the drought stricken area and exemplifies the success of comprehensive planning by local officials. This retrofit of Watt Plaza's urinals comes as Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) and the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) are implementing a comprehensive plan, introduced in May 2008, to secure an adequate water supply for the city. As part of this plan, the LADWP offered a package of incentives for business and citizens to conserve water.
