Shown above is a picture from the Daily Herald of Tuesday, Apr. 29, 1952 showing part of the Brookside Subdivision. It says that a portion of the city was un-undated un-undated two days earlier when rampaging creek defeated the efforts of hundreds of flood-control workers work-ers and seriously went over its banks for the first time, flooding on a diagonal line through east Springville and surrounding areas, threatening scores of homes. The water in these Brookside backyards was a foot deep and very swift. A sandbagged escape canal can be seen in the center of the picture, where homeowners homeown-ers let it go down a driveway to another street in an effort to take some of the pressure off this spot. i ' f:f .f f mm J-rrK I ; ?1 If tf.'Zi i :fsssssaessy38ff .... w. 4 it ' The flood of 1952 saw water problems clear through the city of Springville as the water in Hobble Creek went over the banks.
