Pocket Parks
One of the many unique features of a pocket park is its sustainable design. It is intentionally designed to evolve over time, with plants specifically selected to grow in such a way that they will require less maintenance, fertilizer, and water as they mature. The park will look very different in just three years – and even more so in five -- as the plants fill out and act as a visual and physical buffer between the park and the surrounding streets and commercial properties, including an adjacent parking lot.
