Museum of the City of New York : Neighborhood Explorers great weekend

This week end I joined a group of kids and helped clean up and create a friendly garden space on 3rd Ave and 98th St With camera around my neck I found myself digging holes and pushing the wheelbarrow. As part of a project organized by The Museum of The City of New York the students met over several months and planned and designed the space which included moving existing unattended flower beds and plants and adding flowers, trees and a winding path. The weather that had scheduled to rain held out and by Sunday afternoon the space was truly transformed.
