The Great Flood of Upper Darby

On Facebook, we have a group called "Growing up in Upper Darby", where members post entries about how it was to grow up there. In my case, I grew up in the Stonehurst section, on Walnut Park Drive. At the bottom of my street, there is Cobbs Creek Park, and where Naylor's Run Creek emptied into Cobbs Creek.

Naylor's Run was diverted underground in a drainage tunnel back before I was born, As a result, from time to time, Cobbs Creek would back up and the result was the below video.

There is no viable means to stop this from happening again in my book, unless they install flood gates at the tunnel entrance at Beverly Blvd.
