WATER METRICS

Fivemile Creek Trailhub

City of Meridian, Idaho

'Water Metrics' two spillway forms with their glass mosaic waters splashing down from the tops pay homage to the canals, ditches, and waterways that deliver water to the farms, ranches, and homes in Meridian Idaho.  

The four colorful mosaic medallions on the sides depict images of local bird and plant life, as well as Idaho potato crops, and are surrounded in raised, concentric rings in recognition of the ripple effect of the waters the canals and ditches bring to the community of Meridian.  

The circles are also a nod to the spinning wheels of the trail's bicycling visitors.
