Suwanee Station Stream Restoration

Suwanee, Georgia

• Restoration and preservation of meadow within office park complex
• Recognized the potential to preserve and promote a native beech tree grove, helping to re-establish a species decimated by blight in the late 1900’s
• Recommended opening preservation area by removing overgrowth of non-native species to allow native plants and beech trees to flourish
• Enhanced the existing wetland environment by restoring existing streambed and water flow, protecting the existing beech tree and seedlings and planting additional native trees and plants to attract wildlife
• Preservation area provides enhanced visibility into project, attractive views into meadowlands for tenants and supports the ecology of the area
• Coordinated design effort with local Eagle Scout project to build bird and bat boxes on site to maintain insect control and provide community involvement opportunity
