“So far, the ideas for a new pocket park in West Philadelphia look different than those for other public spaces. That’s in both the plans for the design and how they’re expressed”
“If we wanted to make a privately-owned park accessible to the public, we need some engagement with the community to better understand how the garden would function,” he explained. “Rather than us doing that as developers, we leaned on a not-for-profit that is already engaged with the community.”
