THINKING BIG...AND SMALL

摘要

Quirky And Colorful, LasrnParcelas Garden is among thernmost unusual gardens you'll ever see. Found objects such asrnold table legs and CO2 tanks function as sculptures within the space. Neighbors sit at purple picnic tables beside a "casita" (little house) filled with memorabilia from the gardeners' home country, Puerto Rico. But what is now a vibrant place for growing food and community gatherings once tore this neighborhood apart. It was a series of vacant lots, an eyesore, a place where drug deals were made-until Philadelphia Green helped a small group of neighbors reclaim the space.
