Extend the riverfront trail into the heart of the Warehouse District through the May Street corridor to tie the District and the Riverfront together. Drainage tiles installed beneath the permeable trail extension can be run directly to the river. Branch drain lines throughout the District can tie into the main under the trail, thus a considerable up-hill area can be separated from the CSO. Like an agricultural furrow in reverse: instead of retaining up-hill runoff, the trail collects then releases storm water directly into the river.
