Description

This retention pond located near Discovery Park in Bonney Lake doubles as a park. Surrounded by thousands of bulrushes, it's a tranquil place to take a walk and take in the mountain views.

Materials

Quarry Spalls

Highlights

Washington Rock's quarry spalls were used to create the barriers within the retention basin. The rock was also used around the drain pipes.
