Residential Landscape Garden Design
Environmental
- Reduces total sediment loading from eroding banks by an estimated 1,790 tons per year.
- Estimated to reduce phosphorus by 501 lbs per year, and nitrogen by 553 lbs per year.
- Increased the ecological integrity of the riparian zone, as measured by a 180% increase in the Plant Stewardship Index, a measure of ecological quality based on the plants found on a site.
Social & Economic
- Created a positive or very positive change to the stream and parkland for 85% of 47 Greenbrier neighborhood residents surveyed.
- Provides 40 acres of new public parkland adjacent to 223 units of public and low income housing.
- Catalyzed additional improvement, including a $300,000 multi-use commuter trail and connector bridges that will further enhance the project site.
On the edge of the city of Charlottesville, this 1.4-mile stream resotration abuts parkland, neightborhoods, and a shopping district and contains a section of the 20-mile Rivanna Trail.
A tributary of the Rivanna River and part of the Chesapeake Bay watershed, Meadow Creek's restoration aims to improve its designation as an "impaired waterway".
The "natural channel design" approach establishes a dynamically stable meandering pattern.
