Take another look at a great example for us:
Mandolin Gardens Park, is an 11 acre oasis in the middle of the community, designed by Talley Landscape Architects, Inc. (TLA). Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation (DEC) was the engineering partner. TLA created a design that rejuvenated two existing connected detention basins, then overlayed park amenities of 2 miles of fully accessible trails, plazas, and overlooks. A chemical free, functioning ecosystem has been attained through bio-augmentation of the soils, use of native and naturalized plant materials for erosion control, color, wildlife food and habitat.Mandolin Gardens Park represents an area which retains its function as a detention basin, but also provides the people of the community with an outstanding park. The design for Mandolin Gardens Park is both sustainable and maintainable, creating a functioning ecosystem representing the interconnectedness of all members of the community.
