“Dear PoPville,
In this photo a happy little Mount Pleasant park sits sun drenched and empty. There’s nothing really special about it.
A morning exercise class uses it. Rotating clusters of people wait for the H4. Kids skip through. Dog walkers chat with runners stretching out and folks waiting for the bus. A guy always parks his Vespa here alongside some bikes.

“The Mount Pleasant Mini Park Project is an effort to create more shared spaces (benches) where we can more easily meet our neighbors and be outside in our neighborhood. It is also, well…a bench on your block. Get your official bench plaque today!” (more…)

And I hear the sound of coming full-key’d bugles,
All the channels of the city streets they’re flooding,
As with voices and with tears.”
