Paradise Creek

Paradise Creek is an urban stream that connects San Diego Bay to the watershed of the surrounding city landscape. The Paradise Creek Educational Park restored a 1/2 mile stretch to its natural state as a wetland and salt marsh and is adjacent to an existing school site. Schmidt Design Group, Inc. was responsible for the design of this 6 acre linear park. Educational and observation stations were constructed to enable local and visiting school children to study the sciences and arts. The project includes new entrances, a boardwalk with interpretive signage, an outdoor learning center, a shade structure for picnics, and other improvements for the community.
