Water Flows

From engineered creeks to storm sewers and watermains that lay below our streets, this site examines the evolving nature of water in the city. It's a sketchpad of sorts— a rumination on the ways in which we've transformed its paths and diverted its flow to better suit our needs. All work, unless otherwise noted, is the creation of Andrew Emond.
