The final piece is in place!

The new interpretive sign has been installed at the Eastern Avenue Street-End Bioswale, marking the official completion of this project.

This bioswale is now capturing and cleaning an estimated 250,000 gallons of stormwater each year, helping protect Lake Union and the salmon that depend on clean water.

Thank you to the partners, volunteers, and supporters who helped bring this project to life. We’re proud to see it fully finished and working for our lake and community.

Ready to dig in?🪴

Clean Lake Union is excited to be in the final stage of the Eastern Avenue Bioswale. On Friday, November 7th, we’ll be planting hundreds of native plants that will help filter stormwater before it reaches Lake Union.

We’re looking for 20–30 volunteers to help us complete this project. No experience is required. We’ll provide tools and guidance. Just bring your energy and clothes you don’t mind getting a little dirty.
