This New England

-- Photo by ANDREA LEGGE

This is the Lincoln Street green strip in Boston's Allston neighborhood (much of which Harvard has bought up through sneaky cover companies).

Artist team Legge Lewis Legge worked with the Allston Brighton Community Development Corporation (ABCDC) to transform a strip of trash-filled land on Lincoln Street into public green space. They installed installed decorative planters and sculpture into the landscape.

This project was supported by Art & Community Landscapes, a partnership of the National Park Service, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the New England Foundation for the Arts.

What a wonderful project to emulate in urban areas all over New England.
