I can’t stop thinking about this image as a perfect distillation of contemporary landscape and urban design theory—attuned to the “realpolitik” of a city (anti-homeless infra and luxury real estate development), the bastardized phenomenology of a blue pole and metal grate.
Truly the landscape imagination as it could ever be—a value engineered piece of hostile architecture delivered as charity from a metropolitan growth machine attempting to mask to distract its uneven development patterns.
