CALDWELL, NJ — The Caldwell Environmental Commission is making progress on three new rain gardens designed to help manage stormwater, while also beautifying the community.

The borough gave an update about the rain gardens last week, sharing some photos of the progress that's been taking place:

“Rain gardens at St. Aloysius and the Sisters of St. Dominic have been constructed, while work is now underway at Grover Cleveland Park. Once construction is complete, the Master Gardeners of Essex County will help with planting at all three locations.”
