Pocket parks as examples

Submitted by bzundel04 on Mon, 08/04/2008 - 07:40.

I was just wondering if anyone had any examples of successful pocket parks, between tall buildings.

I am trying to find ones that are really inviting to the public.

Examples don't need to be that particular. I will just giving you all a little description of the future development. This park ideally would be placed in an area featuring retail shops. The design will be an L-shape where the park would connect to two different streets. It surrounds a large building on a corner lot.

Thanks for any help or suggestions,

Zundo

P.S. If you need any other descriptions or clarifications let me know.

not exactly amongst tall bldgs but there are some in portland's pearl district on nw irving street and nw kearney street, also check out some in vancouver's yaletown specifically the concorde pacific development land which is made up of tall towers.

Nice. Thanks for the help!
