The Willows Creek Project

Flagship Watershed Restoration & Ecological Modeling Corridor

Our Premier Neighborhood Case Study

The Willows Creek Project focuses on completely transforming the central urban watershed historically cataloged under the initials DMR. By dismantling unsustainable concrete architecture, we can turn a neglected runoff channel into an active recreational paradise.

Discover how dedicated walking trails connect our community to rich, restorative nature experiences, breathing life back into the heart of our neighborhood.

Low-Tech Engineering Principles

Instead of forcing water into rigid containment lines, we study the natural fluid mechanics of the Plains to establish soft, highly resilient stabilizing infrastructure.

Limestone Sills

The targeted integration of natural limestone sills acts as a series of low-profile step-structures across the channel. This deliberately drops flow velocity, dissipates kinetic energy, and encourages groundwater recharging.

Native Willow Wattle

Woven live willow branches are staked directly into the vulnerable stream banks. This native willow wattle binds the slopes naturally as the stakes root, replacing hard, dead rock structures with living, self-healing root matrices.
