When the water comes down and in the Merri creates an amazing wetland. Below are pictures of the 2013 floods that boarder the proposed subdivision
 |
| View east from block 22 and the proposed free space. The road will run around the right or South edge of this flood of water. The Merri river is flooded both sides covering the rail trail which is the yellow strip on the far side, the point of land in the foreground is the approximate south bank |
 |
| This is the same view as above. The photos is taken from the high land where the box thorn is |
 |
| Same photo as above but maybe block 18, slightly different angle. Note that the proposed emergency foot bridge is planned to cross over this part of the river onto the flooded path |
 |
| This photo is taken from the same spot as above but now looking West, about block 17. There will be houses at this spot. |
 |
| Similar view as above turned slightly north, note that the rail trail is under water on the right hand side of this picture |
 |
| Same view turned to the South a bit looking over Block 15 & 14 |
 |
| This photo is taken from the north side of the river, the subdivision is over the hill in the near distance, again the rail trail is under water |
 |
| This is a view from the West side of the wetland, the western end of the subdivision is on the far side of the water |
 |
| View West from approximately block 14 |

| Sunset over the wetlands |
