Phoenix Park is a 5 acre riverfront park created for the

residents of South Camden located within Camden’s

Waterfront South neighborhood. 227 Jefferson Street

used to be an abandoned industrial property that was

purchased by CCMUA by way of an Open Space grant

provided by Camden County. The property now

includes a replaced asphalt roadway, a number of

wildflower meadows, porous pavement and a number of newly planted trees, all of which assist

in capturing, treating, and infiltrating stormwater. These installations help to mitigate nuisance

flooding in the area and reduces nonpoint source pollution and stormwater that would otherwise

discharge into the City of Camden’s combined sewer system.Phoenix Park captures 5,000,000

gallons of stormwater per year. Phase 1 of Phoenix Park was completed in August 2015.
