Someone has invested space and resources to lay out this raised box farm. This space used to have a more traditional urban garden that, over the past couple of years, had been in decline. The wood and angle iron used in these boxes is a serious investment. They have even shaped the boxes to fit the plot of land. I am really impressed.

On Capitol Hill. Reminds me of the apartments in the movie ‘Singles‘, which was filmed in Seattle. I don’t think this is the actual location, though.

Part of the original P-Patch project in Seattle, this garden thrives in a very dense urban area.

Taken from my 2007 visit to Brooklyn ( I am just finishing the editing on the 600+ photos I took ). From a path in the Botanic Garden.

Skull and Bones

In reference to the previous post I thought I would post this image of the Skull and Bones Building in New Haven, Ct. In contrast to the Montauk Club Building this one is plain bordering on austere. As I walked along the sidewalk looking at as much of the building as I could I did find some nice purple berries so all was not lost. Creepy index was very high for me. I think this building was designed to hide something.
