Many types of turf block exist. The Washington School for the Blink uses a plastic hexagonal type to provide a fire lane in front of their newly landscaped SW Washington school.

Comments:
The Columbia Springs Environmental Learning Center choose to practice what they preach when they installed a turf block parking lot in 2001. The turf block required less off site stormwater treatment and provides an important educational opportunity for visiting students. When the grass is in good shape, the staff occasionally get questions from people wondering where to park. Future plan's include installation of an interpretive sign explaining the site's benefits and instructing people to “Please Park on the Grass.”

Another cement based turf block. This small access area keeps it green along the Willamette River by incorporating turf block.
