Between 1940 and the 1980s, the 2.3-mile river was buried by the Army Corps of Engineers to prevent the spring floods regularly caused by increased surface runoff from urban development. This is a proposal to memorialize the buried river that still flows underground, and bring light to the people and plants it has served for so many years. The objective is to provide a mile marker along a trail in the local River Side Park system for future generations to not only use as a meeting point but also reflect on the local environment, both past and present.
