PARMA, Ohio — In Parma, a beloved community lake has officially been drained and transformed into a catch basin .News 5 has covered the controversial project since the very beginning and spoke with neighbors who previously fought against it and those who said it was a necessary change.
As News 5 Followed-Through and followed construction crews for the last year, Simic now can't seem to stay away. Crews overhauled the space, adding the walking trail, several trees, plants and plenty of landscaping around it."I grew up actually down that first street. So I've seen it as a lake, used it as a lake, fished in it, ice skated on it, I sort of miss it," Kathy Cavalier of Parma said.
"I haven't heard about any flooding. It should help. It should mitigate it. I'm happy with how it turned out. I'm actually at peace. I was worried," Simic said.
