Would this be 'Retro' Landscaping??

In a recent post I wrote about the redevelopment of a commercial site in my suburb...from derelict warehouse/distribution centre to a new shopping/dining precinct. Early last year I had taken some photos starting near the local high school...

Just past this grove of trees was the old site...this section is still untouched by developers...

 The old fence posts...

 Looking back towards the high school...

Then I took photos of the old warehouse site...

 Not much to see...quite overgrown though...
The next photo shows the small pools of water near the boundary of the property. This is the remnant of a small creek that used to flow across the road and continue on to join Kedron Brook.

Long ago, the creek had been diverted by pipes under the road.

When work began on the site all the undergrowth was removed of course...
Looking east towards that grove of trees...

 Looking west to where the new supermarket was being built...

The land is at road level...but that was about to change!
At the end of the project this is the same scene looking west...

 Looking south south west...

 The creek bed is back!!! After 60 years or so! (it may not be in the exact same spot though)

The landscaping certainly was quite a surprise!
