A BIOSWALE WAS BUILT TO CLEAN
RUN OFF WATER FROM THE PARK
BEFORE IT ENTERS A LARGE DRAIN
THAT FLOWS DIRECTLY TO THE
OCEAN A FEW MILES AWAY.

THE ORIGINAL DRAIN (BOTTOM LEFT)
HAD NO CLEAN UP MECHANISM IN
PLACE.

WE CHOSE TO CALL ATTENTION TO
THE MOVEMENT OF WATER THROUGH
THE PARK AND BENEATH THE PARK
BY HIGHLIGHTING THE DRAIN.

LOCALLY QUARRIED CHUNKS OF
LIMESTONE WERE FITTED INTO
GABION WEDGES TO CREATE A
SHALLOW BOWL AROUND THE
DRAIN.. THE LIMESTONE HELPS TO
FURTHER CLEAN UP CONTAMINATED
WATER BEFORE IT ENTERS THE OCEAN.

SOME OF THE LIMESTONE BLOCKS
CONTAINED FISH FOSSILS SO A
VISIBLE EXAMPLE WAS PLACED IN
EACH WEDGE.
