Our natural drainage system in High Point comes in many different forms - #raingardens, mature trees, permeable surfaces, and more! See what you can spot 🔍 when you go our walking tour. #ShapeOurWater
No one wants #pollutants in their water🤢. Our planned South Park Water Quality Facility will help clean up the #Duwamish and add needed infrastructure to @SouthParkWA. Check out the #ShapeOurWater project to get involved in this work near where you live: https://t.co/KIs9lbJPKA
Serving up #stormwater management: did you know that tennis courts can help Seattle manage its #waters? Our Henderson CSO Reduction facility puts storage facilities underground and play space on top, including #ADA friendly walkways so people can enjoy #lake views. #ShapeOurWater
Slow Down for this SEA Street ✋! This design mimics the way natural landscapes manage #rainwater. Winding roads lined with #bioretention cells can reduce #stormwater on the streets by an astonishing 99% and slow down traffic, making it safer for everyone to move. #shapeourwater
How we layout streets can help prevent #floods by slowwwing things down: the Broadview Green Grid pairs paved streets with natural drainage like #swales, #stormwater cascades and small #wetland ponds to slow down the speed of the #runoff when we have a big storm. #ShapeOurWater
Project spotlight: the Pinehurst Green Grid is an A+ #GSI green infrastructure example, re-aligning the road to one side to add a sidewalk, making the neighborhood safer, and a large #bioswale that combines with the street's #storm drains to reduce #flooding. #ShapeOurWater
Making our urban #watershed work for people and wildlife is what our Thornton Creek Confluence Project is about. We restored the original #floodplain with space for water to be held during storms. #Habitat and #water quality improved, and local flooding reduced! #ShapeOurWater
Flying high: our Magnuson Park project transformed a former Naval Air Station into #wetland #habitat for wildlife and community space for ppl. We use #bioswales and a #bioretention plant to clean runoff from parking lots and hold up to 5 MILLION gallons of water. #ShapeOurWater
Big roof, BIG drains. The Beth Shalom Congregation now uses their large #synagogue roof as a #rainwater collector. Thanks to rebates from our Rainwise Seattle program, their roof is keeping 50,000 gallons of #stormwater out of the sewer system each year! #ShapeOurWater
Low cost and community-powered #stormwater infrastructure: the East Ballard Green Street project was implemented by #Ballard community members who also take care of some regular maintenance. https://t.co/pXLohuTb8H #greenstreet #ShapeOurWater

Roadside #raingardens! With partners like @seattledot we build planting strips that separate the street and sidewalk to collect #stormwater. This creates a natural #drainage system that prevents overflows from harming wildlife and swimmers. https://t.co/Z60ckOJeqP #shapeourwater

Once finished, the Ship Canal Water Quality Project will be able to hold 29 MILLION gallons of untreated #stormwater and pump it to West Point to clean it up. It would take more than 1,000 rainy #Seahawks games for Lumen Field to soak up that much! #waterquality #shapeourwater

An Eastlake class act: the #BertschiSchool reduced #stormwater runoff into Lake Union by building a cistern system, #rain gardens and #permeable paving right on their campus! https://t.co/VGdrXqB75k #ShapeOurWater
