This was a really striking and theatrical clearning we found up by Veteran's Park. It's enclosed and has a lot of verticality with the trees in the background, which is different from what we had been thinking of, but I like it a lot. Especially the depth.
Claudia suggested parking lots...while logistically I don't think this is feasible, we still took a bunch of pictures of the Vine St lot, to use more as visual research. We both liked the idea of incorporating man-made materials, like concrete and pipe, etc.
Stairs that go to nowhere...
Though this area was completely wrong in almost every regard, we wanted to consider water (pond, creek, lake)...
More parking lot asphalt mounds...
Up at Long Lane there were some interesting combinations of construction-type materials and natural environment. That whole area was really nice and interesting, with lots to play with. However, the birds were singing and the whole place seemed generally full of life.
Probably our favorite. The HUMONGOUS field near Long Lane...seriously, it's enormous. The grass is really ridiculously tall and overgrown right now--we need to look into when it gets mowed, and what it would look like in Sept.
A nice big mound, already made for us! This is also up at Long Lane. There were a lot of cool places up there, but we want to go back and explore even more.
Thoughts?
