Water currently pools up in these depressions on the site without any subsurface drianage causing rill erosion
The Lack of vegetation on the site causes a harsh animosity for many site tailgaters and commuters

These mowed swales eliminate any opportunity for filtration. These spaces are also overflow for tailgaters during the football season.

The Lynchian Analysis reveals the current locations as circulation types
The current parking lot design vegetation is equivilent to 5% of the surrounding vegetation in Stuart Smith Park
Gathering
The stage of Gathering is the accumulation of parking lot runoff, the incoming city storm water drain, and the building stormwater drains. The collective swale bodies fan out to catch as much water from these three sources as possible.
Filtering
The stage of Filtering is the intake of flow to a system of pollutant-filtering serves to filter out certain pollutants phosphorus. All of this is accomplished native prairie plantings.

Storing
The stage of Storing is the final residence for the water on the site. Here is where all site water remains except in the event of extreme flooding, where overflow transitions into Squaw Creek.

A proposed elevated concourse allows for quick transport of visitors, a viewshed over the entire landscape, and dilineated traffic lanes.
The ‘Floodable’ Rain Garden is a system of segmented swales that merge native planting aesthetic with education of stormwater Management
