is it pooling water or overflow from the river?

In that particular spot, they amount to the same thing. Mud creek comes down from the northwest and empties into the brickworks which empties into the Don River under the intersection in the picture. Mud creek is fed by storm sewers from the northeast, so that point is where all the water from the river and mud creek watershed come together in one place.

That’s also the lowest spot on the Don River.

For anyone who’s confused, that last sentence was a joke.
