<lora:CW_Ecocity_out_zit:1> photo of a morning light reflects off shallow water channels that run between low concrete embankments softened by reeds and grasses. What used to be a flood control basin has been redesigned as a functioning wetland inside the city. Water moves slowly through planted terraces that filter runoff before it reaches the river. Birds gather along the edges where insects are abundant, and small fish are visible near submerged stones. Maintenance workers move quietly along a gravel path, checking water sensors and removing debris caught in the vegetation. Apartment buildings rise in the background, their lower levels protected by the expanded floodplain. The area feels less like a park and more like an ecosystem that happens to exist within an urban boundary.
