I noticed this the first time more than a year ago and was hoping the area would be "prettied up" more like what we have north of 44. Hubby and I took a drive down there two weeks ago and it still looks very sterile to me. Still no fountains on the corners and the planting of flowers are very minimal.

Just my observations. I don't mean to bash at all.
I guess I have missed the waterfalls you speak of. Other than SS, and the eye catching brook at Glenview entrance.

Have seen many bubblers that keeps water moving within the pond, to keep the pond scum at bay. Waterfalls not so much.
