Abstract: Digital Design Wetland is a 7.8-acre Conservation Area south and west of the Digital Design Facility and includes a portion of the floodplain of the unnamed creek that flows east to Lake Alice, between Center and North-South Drives. As the name implies, this Conservation Area is primarily made up wetlands and their associated buffers. Historical photography and documents indicate that this area was previously more of a depression marsh and sink, with the sink being named Sweet Sink. According to a report completed in 1948, Lake Alice Drainage Project, this sink was plugged to prevent wastewater from directly entering the aquifer (and then the City’s drinking wells).
