The 435-acre Broad Meadow Brook Wildlife Sanctuary (Figure 1), the largest urban wildlife sanctuary in the southeast corner of Worcester, Massachusetts, is in an urbanized landscape. The sanctuary is a partnership between the City of Worcester, National Grid, and the Massachusetts Audubon Society (Mass Audubon). The sanctuary has its challenges, including flooding in nearby low-lying neighborhoods and invasive plant species.
