Olmsted
Brothers
Green
Olmsted Brothers Green park acts as the treatment area for stormwater to stop discharge into the Spokane River. Stormwater from the Monroe Street corridor, north of the Spokane River, and some eastern portions of Kendall Yards is pumped into the park during major storm events to be treated in the park’s rain gardens and swales.
As part of a Department of Ecology grant, interpretive signage provides visitors with an opportunity to learn about protecting the Spokane River, rain gardens and porous paving options. MT-LA developed construction documents for the two acre park and was responsible for submitting and presenting the design to the City’s Design Review Board.
