Glen Eden Park Bioretention Area

We constructed a bioretention area at Glen Eden Pilot Park. The project is engineered to capture, absorb, and clean stormwater runoff. The plants, mulch, soil, gravel, and underground pipes will slow down the water and filter out water pollution before it reaches House Creek and Crabtree Creek.

GSI Address: 3705 Eden Croft Drive, Raleigh, NC 27612
