The purpose of this project is to analyze the area of Paradise Creek in National City, California. Flooding in the National City area along 18thSt. between Coolidge Ave. and National City Blvd. hasan adverse effecton the people and businesses. This flooding is caused by the incapacity for storm water conveyance, as well as the impervious surface which increases stormwater runoff, and high tides which feeds ocean water inland through the National City Creek Channel that liesadjacent to the area.
Pedestrianconnectivity solutions will be suggested from the 22ndStreet Transit Center, through the Educational Park/Kimball School, to Kimball Park of National City Blvd. and 16thSt. The National City Library, The National City Recreational Services and Kimball Park are located within the area on E 12thand 16thSt. between National City Blvd. & D Ave. and approximately 1-2 miles away from Kimball School.
