Griffin Brook

Griffin Brook, also known as Griffin Creek, is a stream originating at the base of Red Mountain's southern slope. It meanders south-southwest, running through Rosedale, Homewood Park, and Edgewood before finally feeding into Shades Creek near the intersection of Green Springs Highway and Lakeshore Drive.

From 1915 to the 1940s, Shades Creek was dammed at Columbiana Road, just downstream of where Griffin Brook fed into it. This formed Edgewood Lake, a popular recreational resort during the 1920s and 30s. The base of Griffin Brook formed a portion of this lake. The dry lake bed is still visible along Broadway Street between Saulter Road and Green Springs Highway.
