Gabe Kosarek, Senior Civil Engineer with the City, presented two options for the upcoming renovation of the Hungerford Stoneridge Pond at two meetings with our community. The
concepts can be viewed here: http://www.rockvillemd.gov/index.aspx?NID=1957
During the meetings, Gabe mentioned two other locations that were similar to the Concept #2. The first facility is the College Gardens SWM
facility. This pond was originally constructed in 2010. The facility
is located near College Gardens Elementary here: https://goo.gl/maps/qQgcYRA2o5H2. Note that the woody debris there is due to be cut back.
The second facility is Sunrise Pond at the Horizon
Hill SWM facility. Construction on this pond was completed this year.
It can be found behind 1913 Sunrise Drive. Alternatively, you may park
at the end of Pebble Ridge Court and enjoy
a pleasant ½ mile walk (1 mile round trip) down to the pond and back.
Just walk from the cul-de-sac down towards the basketball court, across
the footbridge, and continue on until you reach the pond. This walk
goes past some stream restoration we did as
well as part of the project which included relocating the basketball
court out of the floodplain. The location of this facility can be seen
here: https://goo.gl/maps/3VmEmn2h6an.
