Grand prize-winning competition masterplan for transformation of a neglected plaza at SE corner of Prospect Park. Convert a barren, concrete open area into a social green space - encouraging both human interactions, and an appreciation of nature. The increased greenery and usable open space, combined with periodic performances and a farmer’s market, all help to strengthen community identity and participation.
