In this project, colors and geometries are manipulated across the grid platforms, with planted-type rows dividing the parklet programming.


Displaced elements such as railroad, represent nearby uncovered archaeological elements covered by modern society, and the redirection of Boneyard Creek curate this site to be a space for understanding and exploring history. In addition, the ecological action with free growth of plants is augmented with interpretive interaction with the site. With a central focus on the elements of the project title, the site’s Firestone building is to be demolished and the brick used to construct the wall remains.
