Two key concerns raised during the charrette included a lack of passive open space and stormwater quality. To help alleviate these concerns Little Gordy Creek could be revitalized as a “day-lighted” greenway. Little Gordy Creek cuts through the center of Midtown and is currently under utilzied. A revitlaizied Creek would enhance stormwater quality and serve as a natural amenity for Midtown. New residential townhouses could front the Creek as bikes and pedestrians meander alongside providing a safe and needed connection through the heart of Midtown.

Where is little Gordy creek on the map? Our house is on S 32 Ave and has had water in our garage when heavy rainfall fills the creek at the south end of S32nd. Will littlr Gordy increase the water in this drainage. If so our problem will worsen as will the homes on Delwood and Brookwood where flooding occored in 83.
