This detention basin is located at a vital intersection in Fairfield, and caters to the stormwater drainage needs of adjacent library and office development.
The design intent was to feature the pond as an attractive entry statement, as well as a detention basin. A trail with seating niches fringes the wateredge, and the plant palette requires low maintenance and water usage. The office building and library overlook the pond, as the open areas merge to form a seamless common space.
