Siuslaw Interpretive Center, Florence, OR
This inviting park welcomes visitors to enter and explore the history, culture and natural systems of the Siuslaw River Estuary and Old Town Florence. Park design echoes the ebb and flow of the tide. Rain gardens cleanse the drainage from Bay Street before the water flows through tidal wetlands and into the river beyond. Meandering paths and a variety of outdoor spaces provide spectacular bridge views. Overlooks feature interpretive plaques that describe the bridge, bay front history, stormwater treatment and native plants. The park has become a favorite destination to relax, learn and enjoy the outdoors.
