Outdoor 'Learning Environment' for PS 19, Queens, NY, Ken Smith

I like the idea of a 'learning environment' rather than a playground...

Rolling dumpster planters with cloud fence, recycled log reading spot, and butterfly garden of this 2004 ASLA award winner by Ken Smith (he of the 'fake' MOMA rooftop garden)

This was a low-budget, pro bono project...well done.
