Stream and ecosystem restoration is a young and rapidly evolving field that presents many opportunities to develop innovative technologies, designs, and concepts built upon the preexisting conceptual frameworks of more mature disciplines. However, the performance of related ecological technologies and designs, and the theoretical basis for deploying them to resolve complex, high value problems in an increasingly urban world demands further investigation. This includes incremental development of ecological technologies, trans-disciplinary synthesis, and conceptual innovation. An example ecological technology employed in stream restoration, the engineered log jam, or ELJ, is evaluated in the laboratory. Physical-scale laboratory modeling, an experimental method familiar to geomorphologists and hydraulic engineers, is employed in a new way for this purpose. Engineering guidelines are developed from results of laboratory experimentation to support expanded applications of this technology. It is posited that ELJs and the tools of stream and ecosystem restoration design may be deployed to enrich cities by equipping them with streams as ecological infrastructure. Stream restoration is then represented as a translational concept. A new conceptual framework, that of ecosystem architecture and optimization of blue space in cities, is synthesized. Its underlying principles of proximity and connectivity are analyzed. Several potentially beneficial applications of multifunctional blue ecological infrastructure are identified and described. This enhances the regenerative and resilient capacity of a city enriched in blue space provided by stream ecosystem architecture through the urban stream as ecological infrastructure. Evidence from numerous fields supporting the proposed applications and posited enhancements is presented. Establishing the functions of ecological technologies and the capacities of blue spaces incorporating them supports the emergence and realization of the new paradigm of ecosystem architecture. Laboratory investigation using physical-scale models supports translation of the design tools and technologies employed in stream restoration to new applications. It is envisioned that an ecological technology development program organized according to the ecosystem architecture and optimization paradigm should succeed this work and guide future research efforts.
