It is part of the Bergen County Park system independently managed by the member-supported, non-profit organization, the Teaneck Creek Conservancy.
Since then the conservancy has continued to grow in community membership, sponsors, educational programs for the public and is known as a premier ecological art park in the region.
The restored wetland includes a large berm, sand seepage pits, and regenerative stormwater conveyance systems to mitigate storm water discharge off Teaneck Road.
They were too large and heavy to remove without considerable destruction to the park and remained as a graffiti covered reminder of the history of environmental degradation.
In 2008, the Teaneck Creek Conservancy commissioned Brooklyn muralist Eduardo Aleander Rabel to lead a group of volunteers including students from the Thomas Jefferson Middle School and AIE NJ State Council on the Arts Grant artist John Kaiser to create murals inside and without all five pipes.

Together with Artist-in-Residence Rick Mills, hundreds of volunteers, families, and community groups turned a site filled with vines and construction debris into the Turtle Peace Labyrinth.
The Harmony Garden was created by Erika and Elizabeth Herman, Teaneck residents and students of the Loomis Chaffee School in Windsor, Connecticut.
