I'll be gussying up this drawing for our community meeting (TBD- we'll keep you posted), but here's Phase I of the Idora Park. The bottom margin runs along Telegraph Ave and the left margin borders 56th St. The small dog park sits expectantly at the corner, while the bocce ball court (shown here as basketball- like I said, edits to come!) segues into a grassy area.
The children's play area is at the top of the page and a border of tall California native shrubs grow along a dry stream bed along the fence line shared with neighboring houses. Proposed art includes a sidewalk to mimic roller coaster tracks, flag posts reminiscent of ones depicted in postcards of the original park (see the title of the blog above), and benches tattooed with colorful mosaics. So many opportunities for art that references the history and culture of our neighborhood! Any suggestions widely encouraged!
