Corner of Eisenhauer and Harlow

My idea to improve this place

Dual community park and garden. Have paths, seating, and water fountain among several raised and ground level vegetable and fruit beds.

So that people could... 

Sit and rest among growing plants visiting with neighbors after a long, hard day, particularly the folks who live in the apartment complex across the road. AND, they can grow and more likely eat fresh produce. The Church across the street could be a coordinating partner.

Because I want San Antonio to be...

a model of green, healthy, and active living where residents feel a sense of belonging and community.
