	Garrison Creek
		Garrison Creek got its name because, when Toronto was young, it entered Lake Ontario just east of Fort York, the military garrison for the region.
		Garrison Creek is divided into four reaches in this account: The Humewood Reach from the source near Vaughn Rd. to Davenport Rd. and the Iroquois Escarpment; The Christie Reach from there to Harbord Street; The Trinity Reach from Harbord Street to Queen St.
		New interest in Garrison Creek arose in the 1980's and 1990's when it became clear that the combined storm and sanitary sewers that had been constructed, beginning in the late 1800's, were too small to properly service modern development.

	Joseph H. Garrison
		JOSEPH H. GARRISON, ex-county clerk, president of the Randall County land and Abstract Company and otherwise prominent at Canyon City, has been a resident of the Panhandle for the past ten years, and has taken a foremost rank among the enterprising and public-spirited citizens of Randall county.
		Garrison is the possessor of one of the nicest ranches in the Panhandle, and although it makes no claims to distinction in the matter of acreage, since it comprises only six hundred and forty acres, yet it is a model as far as management and products are concerned.
		Garrison makes a specialty of and has established a reputation for his thoroughbred registered Durham cattle, with which he has had fine success.

	Science Fair Projects - Trinity Bellwoods Park
		Most of the park's area lies in the original Garrison Creek ravine and this creek, now a buried city storm sewer, still flows beneath the park from the northwest to the southeast corners.
		The old Garrison Creek emptied into Lake Ontario at the site of Fort York, and the land north and west of the fort was set aside as a military reserve.
		In the 1950s Garrison Creek was entirely buried and the creek ravine backfilled around the Crawford Street Bridge, raising the surface of the northern end of the park to almost the height of Dundas Street.

		The undercutting of the riverbank in Garrison's yard and in many of her neighbors in the Dumfries community of Prince William Estates is accelerating.
		Garrison is a feisty 84-year-old whose late husband Jack was the Dumfries mayor from 1976 to 1978.
		Improving the appearance and health of the creek, which was the reason the town was founded 256 years ago and became a bustling port, will not just benefit those with property along its banks, Garrison said.

		Garrison Creek was a short creek about 6 kilometres long, that flowed southeast into the west side of Toronto Harbour.
		The natural ampitheatre known as Christie Pits is one such remnant, the south end of Trinity Bellwoods Park is another.

		Anecdotal information on existing and potential uses for other seasons and in other reaches of Garrison Creek, as well as historic uses, was collected by using a survey questionnaire which was sent to individuals knowledgeable about the creek and water uses.
		However, throughout the creek, temperature and fecal coliform bacteria were found at very high levels and did not meet state standards.

		Fort Garrison, the oldest standing fort in Maryland, was erected in 1695 as a refuge against American Indian attacks.
		We took from them three horses, and all their baggage; and being informed, by two of our number that went to their town, that the Indians had entirely evacuated it, we proceeded no further, and returned with all possible expedition to assist our garrison against the other party.
		And when a passenger gave an officer of the garrison copies of the Tribune, the Herald, and Times, he was surprised to find later news in them from Lisbon than he had just received by the little monthly steamer.

		At issue is the lack of progress on a project -- approved by city council in 1998 -- to reconnect the parks and potential parkland of the largely invisible Garrison valley from north of St. Clair Avenue to the lake.
		Garrison Creek flows under parks, streets, houses, schools and supermarkets, just as the water does in more than a dozen other buried Toronto streams.
		The Garrison project took a more realistic approach, but that might not be enough to save it.

	Eye Weekly - Garrison Creek memories - 06.12.03
		Over time, the creek was routed through a sewer pipe and the valley was used as a place to dump things: municipal garbage for some years in the mid-20th century, and then in the 1960s, the considerable quantities of soil excavated for the Bloor-Danforth subway line.
		Bernd Baldus is part of a group that for the past decade has been trying to restore elements of the Garrison Creek and reveal parts of the original stream, now encased in a sewer pipe.
		Behind it, by the edge of the creek, was a small amphitheatre of Greek design where students performed Greek plays.

	Kinniconick Creek in Lewis County Kentucky
		The creek, which is alleged to be 99 miles in length, winds its way, back and forth, through one county, Lewis.
		The creek (at the village of Kinniconick) is about 680 feet above sea level, while the Ohio River, only six miles distant, and almost parallel, is about 500 feet above sea level, but a range of hills about 1,100 feet high separate the two streams, one of these being the Vanceburg Hill.
		The present day town of Garrison, situated at the mouth of Kinniconick, was once known as Stone City because of all the stone quarries that were operated in the general vicinity.

		The lower reaches of Taddle Creek once flowed through the old town of York and the now-restored Distillery District, where the operations of several breweries were once sustained by its waters.
		The creek, which ran north through Trinity-Bellwoods Park, was spanned by several bridges, but pollution caused by settlement led to its being buried by the mid-192os.
		Like other creeks in Toronto, these were buried to accommodate rapid development, but for a time a pump, believed to exist today inside the walls of the Market Building, was installed to draw water for horses.

		Its western edge is engulfed by earth and grass as though it has attempted to sink quietly away into the ground of the park to be lost and forgotten like the rest of the structure.
