Parks don’t typically pop up in the middle of town overnight. Thanks to a collaboration between the Temple University Department of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture, the volunteer Park(ing) Day team, residents and civic organizations, that’s exactly what has happened in the heart of Doylestown four years running.
This year, the team is transforming the corner of Hamilton and West State streets in Doylestown Borough into “a fleeting green oasis,” according to Temple University Department of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture Associate Professor Baldev Lamba, who spearheaded and designed the project.
Park(ing) for People, a temporary “pop up” park, will be open to the public from September 21 through September 23.
