The production of bricks ceased 50 years ago and nature has since restored the space to a wetland habitat capable of sustaining birds\, fish\, wildlife\, and a wide range of plant species. \nNOTE: Free parking is available in the parking lot. There is a paved trail and boardwalk from the parking lot to the lake. Other sections are natural surface or boardwalk.
