Parking Lot in East Falls
The City of Philadelphia constructed a 50-space parking lot to serve the East Falls commercial district and Kelly Drive recreational trail users. The lot was designed with a rain garden that manages the majority of surface runoff from the parking lot. The system serves as a demonstration of an encouraged stormwater management practice and provides an opportunity for stormwater education and awareness in a riverside community. The bioinfiltration garden is located in a high traffic location and also serves as a gateway to the East Falls Neighborhood.
