I don't know where you are exactly, Tanya, but NYC used to have brooks, and creeks all through BROOKlyn and the Bronx and Manhattan. Clear bubbling brooks rolled over the dark stone that's now the foundations of the skyscrapers. 

We ... buried the streams in underground drain tunnels, but they are all still there! Water is powerful and tried to return to these old paths and now that there is more... Well there is some thinking we need to do.
