July 10, 2014. A Tomato Grows in Brooklyn. This summer I have the most delightful weirdo garden growing on my roof in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. It's been a really fun project with a healthy dose of trial and error (tomato plants blowing over in the wind, rainbow chard flu) not to mention the combined effort of many (thanks PS and HD. To simply get the planting supplies to the apartment! A few of the herbs were planted from seed, but many of the plants are from my favorite neighborhood store, Natty Garden.

Colectivo por la conquista del espacio público. La plaza de la luna: un lugar fragmentado. La plaza Soledad Torres Acosta está a una manzana de la Gran Vía y es la zona de paso hacia Corredera Baja de San Pablo. La zona es considerada insegura y con un alto índice de población marginada. Por esta razón, proponemos tomar como punto central la Plaza de la Luna y desde allí generar un mapa de la zona que englobe recorridos, necesidades y equipamientos del barrio. La participación colectiva como base de todo.
