Bay Village Neighborhood Park Design Meeting #2 August 5, 2021
A
A
Next
aaron
thanks
so
during
the
q
and
a
in
order
to
participate,
if
you're
joining
by
phone
use
star9
to
raise
your
hand
to
ask
for
audio
or
video
permission
to
ask
questions
or
provide
comments
and
then
via
the
web,
you
can
use
the
chat
feature
to
ask
questions.
You
make
comments
and
you
can
raise
your
hand
to
ask
for
audio
and
video
permission
again
for
comments
or
questions.
A
A
So
I'll
introduce
the
team
and
then
we'll
I'll
hand
that,
over
to
our
design,
consultants,
copley,
wolf,
design,
group
and
they'll
take
us
through
the
presentation
and
then
we'll
have
a
time
for
community
feedback
where
you
can
give
us
your
ideas
and
we'll
listen
and
respond.
If
we
think
that
that
will
be
helpful
and
then
closing
remarks
and
next
steps.
A
Next
so,
as
I
said,
I'm
annie
blair.
We
also
have
christine
brandeo
who's.
The
outreach
coordinator
within
the
parks
department
helping
to
facilitate
tonight,
and
we
have
two
representatives
from
copley,
wolf
design
group
one
is
jim
heru
and
one
is
aaron
kramer
and
they're
really
doing
the
bulk
of
the
work,
which
is
fantastic
so
next
and
the
schedule
so
far
has
been.
A
We
had
our
first
community
meeting
and
typically
we
have
three,
and
that
was
really
about
our
listening
to
what
you
all
had
to
say
about
what
you
see
as
the
issues
to
be
addressed
and
the
goals
for
the
park
and
also
what's
sacred
and
should
not
be
changed
or
altered
in
between
that
meeting.
In
this
second
meeting
we
also
had
a
drop-in
session
in
the
park
at
a
point
where
that
seemed
safe.
To
do
that.
A
Through
this
point,
the
second
meeting
we
put
in
a
request
in
the
latest
budget
for
significantly
more
money,
550
000
more
to
take
us
the
rest
of
the
way
through
design
and
construction
documents
and
bidding.
And
then
you
know
most
of
that's
going
to
go
for
construction
costs
and
because
I
haven't
been
able
to
write
the
contract
extension
yet
for
design
services,
because
we
don't
have
the
finally
approved.
B
I'm
gonna
let
aaron
begin
to
introduce
what
we've
heard,
but
I
did
want
to
add
to
what
annie
said
too,
in
that
the
brown
fund
not
only
paid
for
our
design
services,
but
that
included
within
that
number
in
that
same
fee
number
was
a
full
survey
of
the
property
which
is
instrumental
in
having
us
understand
the
scale
of
the
park.
We
have
the
slopes
of
the
park
and
really
the
technical
parameters
for
which
to
work
within
which
really
helped
us
in
the
concept
phase,
but
also
will
be.
B
C
So
I'm
going
to
start
out
by
reviewing
what
we
what
we've
heard
up
into
this
point.
First,
both
at
the
first
community
meeting
and
at
the
on-site
meeting
key
things
that
we
heard
and
was
that
you
really
love
the
park
and
you
want
to
preserve
the
character
of
the
park.
You
like
how
the
park
functions,
you'd
like
to
preserve
the
function
of
the
park,
the
perennial
gardens
are
beautiful
and
you
would
like
to
restore
them.
C
You'd
also
like
to
restore
the
materials
of
the
park.
So
that's
the
existing
lighting,
the
fencing,
the
paving
the
edging
and
other
materials.
The
existing
fountain
is
light
and
you'd
like
to
restore
and
upgrade
it.
Electricity
would
like
to
be
brought
into
the
park
for
events
holiday,
tree
lighting,
music
and
other
community
functions.
C
There
was
a
desire
for
some
additional
storage
for
some
of
the
maintenance
items
for
all
the
planting
and
to
provide
some
additional
trash
receptacles
based
on
all
the
feedback.
One
of
the
goals
that
we
have
for
this
park
is
that
we
recognize
that
the
planting
is
very
important
and
before
we
were
to
do
any
construction,
we
would
work
with
you
to
inventory
the
plants
in
the
park
to
figure
out
what
you
would
like
to
keep.
What
need?
What
are
we
preserving?
C
C
Currently
at
one
of
the
entrance
walls
for
the
maintenance
of
the
plants.
The
plantings
are
very
beautiful
here.
Here's
a
couple
one
example
showing
all
the
hydrangeas
in
full
bloom
there's
some
some
flexible
seating
that
people
brought
into
the
park,
some
umbrellas
with
tables
and
movable
chairs,
and
some
movable
benches
there
are
two
current
raised
planters
at
the
park-
may
need
a
little
repair
but
they're
there
there
and
they
help
kind
of
they're
at
the
existing
gateways.
C
Here's
current
site
plan
just
for
reference
again
pointing
out
the
charles
street
entrance
and
the
melrose
street
entrance.
There's
this
existing
drain.
Where
all
the
for
all
the
runoff
in
the
park,
there
are
three
existing
trees
that
will
remain
the
perennial
gardens,
the
existing
fountain
and
other
features.
C
Here's
a
site
analysis
take
both
taken
from
the
existing
site,
inventory
images
site
visits.
What
we
heard
and
the
site
survey
you'll
notice
the
two
visual
axes
that
are
so.
What
do
you
see
when
you
look
out
the
gate?
The
one
on
melrose,
as
we
saw
in
the
before
photo?
It
looks
towards
the
parking
garage
and
the
one
that
goes
across
at
charles
street
south?
Really
it
looks
kind
of
out
into
the
distance
the
two
corners
of
the
park,
which
you
know,
are
kind
of
focal
points
where
you'd
be
drawn
like.
B
Yeah,
I'm
going
to
jump
in
just
I'll.
Add
a
little
bit.
Can
you
actually
go
back
one
erin
really
quickly,
some
of
the
things
that
that
we
looked
at
certainly
heard
you
that
you
like
the
park
the
way
it
is
you
just
you
know,
love
its
spatial
features.
You
love
the
perineal
gardens
and
it's
just
general
function,
but
some
of
the
things
that
that
it
it
lacks
was
a
major
focal
point
which
a
lot
of
great
parks
have
and
the
focal
point
could
be.
B
You
know
it
could
be
a
sculpture,
it
could
be
water
or
that
sort
of
thing
so
go
forward
again
and
so
in
the
neighborhood.
These
are
all
in
the
south
end,
so
a
very
short
walk
from
where
you
are
the
bradford
street
park
and
ringgold
park
both
have
as
a
focal
point
a
fountain,
basically
in
the
backdrop
and
if
you've
you've
probably
been
to
these
parks.
B
You
know
something
that's
part
of
the
region,
whether
it's
sculpture,
it's
history,
the
strong
materials,
you
know
they
usually
have
granite
and
brick.
You
have
brick
in
your
park.
Each
one
has
a
passive
garden
quality.
If
you've
been
to
the
parks,
you
you
see
that
there's
lots
of
perennials
lots
of
strong
woody
plants
as
well.
B
Each
one
has
like
your
neighborhood
park,
strong,
neighborhood
involvement.
I
mean
people
are
out
there
weeding
they
have
community
events,
and
that
sort
of
thing
and
a
common
denominator
is,
is
that
the
edward
ingensol
brown
fund
has
donated
toward
the
sculpture
or
toward
the
fountain
or
toward
the
gates.
So
it's
it's.
It's
you're
in
good
company,
and
I
I
think
if
you
are
wondering
you
know
how
you
know
these
parks
could
influence
yours
and
and
the
influence
some
of
the
concepts
that
we're
going
to
be
showing
you.
B
B
So
this
is
basically
a
light
touch
on
your
park.
Construction
is
a
messy
business,
but
in
regards
to
spatial
and
function
of
the
park,
this
is
pretty
much
what
you
have
and
leaving
the
entrances
on
melrose
street,
leaving
the
entrance
on
south
charles
street,
leaving
the
general
shape
of
the
plaza
itself
the
park
itself.
B
It
it
functions
the
same
way.
The
the
big
move
would
be
upgrading
the
materials
in
regards
to
you
know
the
threshold.
Currently
you
have
a
brick
threshold
coming
in
from
melrose
a
concrete
threshold
and
steps
coming
in
from
south
charles
street
and
the
fountain,
if
you,
if
you
recall,
is
actually
sort
of
tucked
into
the
perennial
garden
along
south
charles
street.
B
B
Currently
the
park
itself,
even
though
it's
accessible
and
that
you
can
come
into
the
park
with
a
wheelchair
off
of
melrose
street?
The
pitch
of
the
park
is
not
an
accessible
accepted
pitch
by
ada
standards.
It's
currently
over
three
percent.
It's
three
and
a
half
four
four
percent
in
some
areas
and
and
the
acceptable
ada
pitch
is-
is
less
than
half
that
it
should
be
about
one
and
a
half
to
two
percent.
So
so,
in
order
to
make
it
friendly
for
all
people,
it
would
need
to
be
brought
brought
up
to
those
standards.
B
Over
the
years
a
brick
falls
apart
rather
quickly,
and
then
you
have
to
repoint
them.
Most
of
us
live
in
brick
buildings
and
know
what
that's
all
about,
and
it's
it's
it's
not
a
great
thing
to
have,
but
also
and
then
along
the
edge,
is
perhaps
build
up
on
the
curb
and
with
a
stronger
edge
condition.
As
you
would
see.
B
In
that
analysis,
plan
aaron
mentioned
the
space.
That's
visual
space,
that's
kind
of
leaking
in
the
corners.
So
when
you're
in
the
park,
it
is
a
very
nice
enclosure.
You
feel
by
the
buildings
that
are
around
the
park
except
along
south
south
charles
street,
where
it's
basically
a
busier
more
commercial
type
street.
B
B
Basically
a
flowering
feature
plant
that
would
help
contain
that
space
a
little
bit
better.
So
it's
all
a
series
of
small
gestures
and
a
big
move
to
create
to
upgrade
the
ada
aspect,
but
it
is
essentially
your
park
today
with
a
with
a
more
upgraded,
fountain
and
and
materials.
Next,
one
concept:
two.
B
Basically,
as
you
come
out
of
the
park,
instead
of
coming
out
to
the
park
onto
a
relatively
busier
road
in
south,
charles
or
narrow,
walk
onto
melrose
the
park,
the
entry
on
to
melrose
would
actually
be
a
nice
sort
of
generous
granite
area
which
would
could
take
in
the
entrance
to
the
the
church
which
we
recognize
hasn't
been
open
for
a
while,
but
it
could
develop
into
something
as
well.
So
it's
also
pushing
you
into
your
community
itself
rather
than
pushing
you
onto
melrose
street.
B
B
It
also
would
allow
us
to
have
the
entrance
of
the
park,
be
the
focal
point
to
the
fountain
itself,
so
bringing
that
fountain
out
off
out
of
the
perennial
edge
and
out
into
the
park
itself
you'd
be
able
to
look
right
at
it
and,
and
that
would
just
be
a
nice
draw
into
the
park
itself
in
this.
In
this
option.
B
We
actually
in
fact
the
next
three
options
we
actually
remove
the
raised
planters,
which
we
again
recognize
they
have
to
be
rebuilt
anyway,
they're
probably
difficult
to
maintain
and
the
planting
is
up
too
high
and
they're
a
bit
of
a
visual
barrier.
As
you
come
out
of
bay
village
into
the
park,
they're
sort
of
a
visual
cork
at
the
corners
and
it'd
be
nice
actually
to
to
extend
the
perennial
gardens.
B
B
Is
a
little
bit
more
moving
those
entrances?
It's
actually
relieving
the
pressure
of
the
tightness
coming
out
on
coming
out
of
bay
village
along
fayette
street,
so
you
actually
have
a
more
generous
entry
to
the
park
and
also
keeping
this
the
same
move
on
melrose
street.
So
now
we
have
two
focal
points,
I'm
looking
one
focal
point
and
two
positions
for
that
focal
point.
Looking
from
fayette
and
looking
from
melrose
so
really
grabbing
the
true
bay
village
community.
B
That's
on
the
top
of
the
page,
as
you
come
to
the
park.
Looking
right
at
that
fountain,
each
one
would
have
a
granite
pad,
that's
associated
with
the
fountain
itself
and
within
some
form
of
interactive
feature,
which
we'll
show
you
some
examples
of
again
using
those
small
flowering
trees
in
the
corners
to
help
contain
the
contain
the
space.
B
So
in
a
way
it's
a
bit
of
a
wasted
space.
When
you
think
about
it,
you
we
probably
don't
have
a
lot
of
foot
traffic
on
it
and
if
we
suddenly
made
that
the
main
entry
into
the
park
with
a
secondary
egress
onto
south
charles
street,
you
could
in
a
way
kind
of
extend,
extend
the
park.
You
could
even
put
some
flexible
seat
like
seating
in
that
space
as
well.
B
So
essentially,
as
you
come
out
of
the
bay
village
community,
you
come
along
the
church
area
and
you
have
a
large
area
which
could
actually
have
tables
and
chairs
in
it,
and
you
come
into
the
park
where
again,
the
focal
point
is
the
fountain
beyond
and
and
then
you're.
Basically,
in
matter
of
fact,
you
could
even
use
that
that
walkway
passageway
as
an
opportunity
to
set
up
like
where
the
tree
might
go,
which
we
didn't
begin
to,
tell
you
where
the
tree
could
go.
B
We
will
supply
electricity,
but
but
it's
trying
to
give
you
as
many
opportunities
as
possible
to
say.
Well,
you
know:
where
do
we
want
these
features?
You
know
where
will
the
stage
go
for
music
and
and
that
sort
of
thing,
so
it's
it's
a
little
bit
of
a
drastic
move
from
what
you
have
today,
but
I
think
it's
worth
some
thought
and
some
consideration
to
see
if
there's
any
value
in
in
sort
of
rescuing
the
offense
sidewalk
up
against
the
church.
B
C
Okay,
so
for
any
of
the
for
any
of
the
concepts,
we
would
be
looking
at
refreshing
some
of
the
materials
of
the
park
for
the
for
the
main
park
paving.
We
would
look
at
the
bottom.
Two
images
which
would
be
wire
struck,
brick
pavers,
so
they
are
brick
they're
compliant
with
the
americans
with
disabilities
act
and
they
come
in
various
colors.
We
can
discuss
colors
like
do
you
want
a
red
or
brick?
Do
you
want
a
darker
brick?
How
would
you
like
to
how
close
like
try
to
do?
C
We
want
to
make
it
stand
out
a
little
bit
or
do
we
want
to
match
visually
all
the
surrounding
sidewalks
and
buildings,
the
accent
paving
that
jim
was
talking
about
the
concepts?
This
is
just
an
example:
we're
proposing
granite,
it's
durable.
It
goes
well
with
brick.
It's
easy
to
maintain
is
also
compliant.
C
We
could
use
that
for
borders
around
the
edges
or
around
the
fountains,
and
then
there
are
many
different
ways
to
lay
brick.
Let
us
know
in
the
comments
at
the
end
of
the
presentation,
if
there's
a
different
pattern
right
now,
it's
a
standard
running
bond,
but
there
are
different
ways
that
you
can
run
brick
to
really
ex.
C
You
know,
make
the
space
special
site
materials
so
we're
keeping
the
existing
gas
lamps
refurbishing
them
as
needed
and
restoring
them
the
flexible
seating
you
will
be,
bringing
that
in
on
the
community
can
bring
in
flexible
seating.
Boston
parks
does
not
install
flexible
seating
generally,
but
we
will
be
providing
benches
fixed
seating.
We
have
three
examples
shown.
These
are
all
very
standard
benches.
You
can
do
them
with
black
steel
straps.
C
You
could
do
a
classical
steel
frame
with
plastic
or
wooden
slats
and
then,
depending
on
the
size
of
the
bench.
All
these
are
shown
without
center
armrest.
We
could
add
a
center
armrest,
depending
on
the
length
of
bench
to
for
activities
at
night
and
also
to
help
people
get
up
and
out
of
the
bench
if
they're
mobility
impaired,

C
Here's
some
of
those
fountain
ideas
that
we
were
talking
about,
so
the
first
pictures,
current
fountain
that
we'd
be
restoring,
and
then
how
would
we
bring
some
interactive
elements
in?
These
are
two
existing
fountains
that
you
can
go
visit
at
nearby
wrinkle
park,
the
one
on
the
left,
which
is
a
little
bit
bigger
and
the
one
at
bradford
street
park,
which
is
more
of
a
smaller
interactive
element
for
the
site
drain.
C
The
existing
drain
in
the
center
we'd
be
bringing
that
up
as
we
bring
up
the
path,
and
I
think-
and
that
would
be
a
good
place
where
you
could
add
a
unique
drain
cover
as
another
decorative
element
to
the
park.
Currently,
the
edge
of
all
the
planting
beds
are
cobbles.
The
lower
left
image
shows
an
example
of
where
we
could
maybe
bring
in
some
beefier
granite
elements
to
both
match
the
accent
painting
paving
and
to
really
like
delineate
the
edge
of
the
bed
in
a
nice
clean
visually
pleasing
manner.
C
Storage
was
something
that
came
up
as
something
that
might
be
desired.
This
picture
is
just
showing
a
current
example
of
a
storage
box
from
wrinkle
park,
where
you
would
be
able
to
store
tools
and
other
plant
maintenance
items.
Another
thing.
So
if
we
do
the
granite
edge
of
the
curt
of
at
the
planters,
it's
up
for
discussion,
would
you
like
a
border
guard?
In
addition,
an
ornamental
iron
border
guard
to
match
to
go
with
the
fence
to
help
you
know,
protect
the
plantings.
C
And
then
we
were
talking
about
anchor
trees.
Here
are
three
examples
of
trees
that
you
they
have
blooming
at
different
times
for
some
seasonality
and
they
are
pretty
open
and
they
would
just
flower
different
times.
Do
you
wanna
mid
late
summer
bloom
like
a
tree
hydrangea?
Would
you
like
a
red
bud
that
blooms
middle
of
spring,
or
do
you
like
something
like
witch
hazel,
which
is
some
of
that?
C
First,
pop
of
color
as
the
plants
come
live
and
then,
with
that
we
are
opening
it
up
to
the
community
feedback,
some
of
the
things
that
we'd
like
to
hear
what
what
events
take
place
at
bay
village?
How
can
we
help
connect
the
park
to
bay
village,
which
concept
of
the
four
do
you
prefer?
Do
you
prefer
a
com
combination
of
like
say
you,
like
the
fountain
location
from
number
two
but
you'd
like
to
keep
the
planters
from
number
one?
B
Well,
in
regards
to
how
can
we
the
park
be
more
connected
to
bay
village?
That
just
so
you
know
that
is
the
goal
of
the
concepts
is,
as
we
begin
to
look
at
the
entrance,
how
you
come
into
it.
You
know
sliding
those
entrances
and
relieving
the
pressure
on
the
sidewalk
along
with
really
bringing
yeah.
If
you,
if
you
know
a
matter
of
fact,
I
was
telling
aaron
the
other
day.
B
If
you
go
to
google
and
just
type
in
bay
village
park
bay,
village,
not
bay,
village
park
bay,
village,
boston,
google
is
very
nice
and
it
creates
a
little
border
for
you
as
to
where
bay
village
is.
It
runs
right
through
the
middle
of
the
park
and
it
sort
of
goes
off
to
into
the
neighborhood
and
leaves
out
half
the
park
and
and
south
charles
street.
B
That's
actually
that
it's
how
I've
always
thought
of
bay
village
it
was
like
this
park
is
on
the
edge
and
south
charles
is
really
kind
of
more
in
a
way.
Theater
district,
chinatown,
slash
other
things
and
bay
village
is,
is
stepping
across
that
threshold,
so
those
entrances
can
connect
where,
as
our
attempts
really
kind
of
connect
it
to
the
neighborhood,
you
know
that
defining
that
threshold
a
little
bit
more.
B
Yet
simultaneously,
it's
been
it's
it's
restored
to
what
you'd
expect
it
to
be
rescuing
every
plant
having
the
garden
aspect
of
it,
be
exactly
what
you
think
it
should
be,
but
simultaneously
having
it
improve
enough
in
regards
to
its
entrances
that
you
feel
like
you're,
stepping
out
your
door
and
you're
stepping
into
the
park.
It's
part
of
your
house
and
part
of
your
living
room
in
a
way.
So
that's
that's
our
circle
and
that's
how
we
looked
at
it
as
we
developed
these
concepts
in
regards
to
benches
and
things
like
that.
B
That's
all
like
furnishings
that
that
can
get
kicked
around
and
how
the
fountain
functions
and
that
that
that
would
be
the
the
next
step.
In
terms
of
us
consolidating
these
concepts
into
the
one
you
prefer,
the
most
and
and
as
the
design
you
know,
we
would
come
back
with
the
design,
the
design
that
we
felt
you
guys
have
told
us.
You
prefer
us
to
have
not
four
versions
of
it
and
then,
as
annie
mentioned,
there's
money
to
move
into
the
true
design
phase
and
and
the
preparation
of
construction,
drawings
and
construction.
B
C
Sure
I
can
read
a
couple
of
them.
First
couple
of
comments
from
judy.
She
says
concept
number
four
concerns
her,
especially
if
the
church
ever
gets
sold.
She
likes
number
three's
entrance
at
fayette.
She
says
it's
interesting.
It
would
be
nice
to
have
a
crosswalk
there
between
the
garden
and
eliot
norton.
A
lot
of
people
cross
there
now
without
a
crosswalk
kendra
says
that
she
agrees
with
the
above
comment.
C
It
would
be
nice
with
the
dog
park
there
too
andrew
comments.
The
benches
would
permit
homeless
to
sleep
on
them,
even
with
center
arms
total
non-starter
also.
He
he
believes
that
additional
trees
in
the
corners
that
we
were
proposing
would
block
the
police
view
of
what's
happening
in
the
park.
Overall.
He
prefers
number
three
judy
says
she's
wondering
if
a
storage
box
is
needed,
there
is
a
large
one
across
the
street
carol
asked
how
the
concept
decision
will
be
made.
C
B
Yeah
and
aaron,
let
me
just
add
a
little
color
to
the
storage
box
when
you
know
we're
not
we're
not
attempting
to
replace
the
storage
across
the
street,
which
we
understand
is
where
the
furniture
is
stored
for
the
winter.
That
kind
of
thing
I
I've
actually
met
with
tom
on
on
site
and
asked
a
bit
more
about
the
function,
the
storage
box,
you
know
in
it
the
decides
to
be
determined.
It's
really
for
your
everyday
tools
like
someone's
coming
out
there.
They
they
need
a
spade.
B
They
need
some
fertilizer
or
a
bucket
or
something
rather
than
walking
across
the
street.
That's
what
the
storage
box
is
for.
That's
why
that
rather
small
one
shouldn't
mingle
apart,
that's
select
the
everyday
little
things
that
you
don't
want
to
run
home
to
your
basement,
to
get
so
just
just
to
make
that
clear.
C
D
E
E
E
And
probably
trying
to
juggle
with
it
thanks
guys,
I
really
do
appreciate
it.
I
think
that
the
effort
here
I'm
the
president
of
bvna,
I
think
the
effort
here
does
reflect
the
feedback
that
you
guys
have
heard.
So
I'm
generally
encouraged
about
this.
You
know
I'm
far
from
going
to
be
the
strongest
opinion
or
decision
maker
on
this,
although
I'm
very
much
intrigued
by
option
three.
E
And
so
I
you
know,
while
I
recognize
the
concern
about
having
individuals
camp
out
there
overnight,
and
I
know
that
people
are
frustrated
by
the
fact
that
that's
happening
right
now
in
eliot.
Norton
reality
is
that's
happening
without
furniture,
and
so
I
think
it
would
be
nice
to
at
least
have
a
bench
in
there.
Although
we
might
want
to
be
careful
about
the
design
of
that
bench.
A
B
G
G
Yeah
no,
so
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you.
These
are
great
options.
I
really
appreciate
having
professional
eyes,
look
at
the
park
and
make
suggestions
for
improvements,
and
I
like
your
comments
about
how
you
need
to
have
a
focal
point
and
have
in
having
the
fountain
be
more
of
a
focal
point.
I
think
it's
a
great
idea
and
the
having
entrances
more
accessible.
G
You
know,
I
I
understand
that
so
I
like
what
you've
done
there.
You
know
having
some
anchors,
I'm
I'm.
I
love
trees.
So
I'm
sorry,
I
love
the
perennial
garden.
Is
there
some
way
you
could
have
some
more
trees
and
still
have
enough
sun
for
the
perennial
garden?
I
think
that
would
be
nice,
I'm
you
know.
G
When
maybe
we'll
take
some
of
the
seating
away,
there
will
be
some
other
places
for
people
this
to
sit
and
enjoy
the
park.
I
personally
never
go
in
the
park
because
I
have
a
dog
and
I'm
not
allowed
to
go
in
the
park,
so
I
just
really
wanted
to
be
attractive
as
I
walk
by
the
park
and
I
think
the
the
idea
of
changing
the
the
planting
beds
is
pretty.
I
can't
it's
hard
for
me
to
visualize
that
it
would
be
nice
if
you
had
some
kind
of
drawing.
G
B
Yeah,
just
so,
you
know
that
it
would.
The
removing
those
brick
planters
would
just
be
an
extension
of
what
you
have
so
essentially
it's
a
combination
of
you
know.
Some
woody
plants
like
aaron,
mentioned
the
hydrangea,
but
also
some
perennials,
so
it
right
now,
as
you
know,
they're
just
at
that
height,
if
you're
a
little
kid
they,
they
must
seem
like
a
building,
but
if
you're
a
short
adult
they,
they
seem
they're,
probably
a
visual
barrier,
if
you're
a
tall
adult
you're
still
you
know
hitting
it
at
stomach
levels,
so
they're
pretty
tall.
B
That
would
not
compromise
the
safety
of
the
park
by
not
allowing
eyes
to
get
into
it.
So
that
would
be
our
goal
and
we
actually
run
across
this
all
the
time.
So
I
just
wanted
to
ease
your
fears
on
that
one
and
by
the
way
I
have
a
perino
got
at
my
house,
some
with
more
sun,
some
with
less
sun.
So
you
could
still
get
a
great
garden
with
a
few
light.
Canopy
trees
in
it.
G
B
B
As
you
probably
imagine,
all
the
parks
in
the
south
end
are
frequented
by
children
in
regards
to
function
in
terms
of
entering
at
corners,
I
would
recommend
going
to
hayes
park
on
warren
avenue
that
has
two
angled
walkways,
both
with
the
focal
point
being
on
the
playing
child
in
the
middle
of
the
tulip
bed
and
in
the
background
and
and
there's
actually
a
third
entry,
there's
actually
three
entries
into
that
park.
There's
a
very
small
piece
of
play:
equipment
in
that
park.
B
B
C
For
saying
that
she
loves
the
options
and
is
interested
in
the
third
option,
but
may
need
to
try
them
out
ben
says:
will
the
perennials
be
kept
during
restart
construction?
We
planted
when
we
inventory
and
we
would
have
the
contractor,
preserve
and
protect
the
existing
pertanuals,
so
the
ones
that
we
were
keeping
would
stay
either
off-site
somewhere,
safe
or
if
there
are
parts
that
are
not
being
disturbed.
B
B
Well,
one
thing
we
don't
want
is
that
plant
back
in
here,
so
so,
if
that
also
will
be
a
process,
but
I
didn't
want
you
to
get
the
impression
that
we're
we're
going
through
a
process
of
finding
a
little
safe
spot
for
every
little
perennial
and
and
we're
gonna
bring
that
plant
exactly
and
put
it
back
in
the
exact
same
spot.
That
would
be
a
process
we
work
through
with
you.
People
promise
dad
aaron.
B
B
So
that's
a
part
of
that
would
be
part
of
the
investigation
like
what
do
we
have
to
do?
We're
where
we
understand
that
you
love
that
fountain,
so
the
intent
would
be
to
preserve
and
restore
it,
but
then
to
add
to
it
and
the
ringgold
park
fountain,
as
you
saw
had
a
bowl
and
and
water
comes
out
of
the
top,
but
also
an
interactive
piece
comes
out
of
the
side.
B
We
can't
do
that
with
your
fountain.
You
have
water
coming
out
of
the
side
and
maybe
that's
the
interactive
portion,
but
the
reason
we
showed
the
bay
the
bradford
street
park
is.
That
also
has
a
fountain
on
the
on
a
backdrop,
so
so
it'd
be
doing
what
it's
doing,
but
in
front
of
it.
There's
like
it
looks
like
a
drainage
grate.
Actually,
it
is
a
drainage
grate,
but
if
you
push
a
button
off
to
the
side,
a
spray
comes
out
of
the
ground
and
it
that's
the
interactive
part.
B
So
if
you
don't
mind
your
child
getting
wet
or
playing
a
trick
on
your
neighbor
yeah,
that's
an
option.
That's
why
we
showed
sort
of
a
larger
apron
around
a
blue
dot,
the
blue
dot,
representing
the
restored
and
preserved
garden
of
of
that
fountain
that
you
have
out
there,
but
also
adding
a
second
component
of
some
scale
and
that's
to
be
developed.
So
that
was
the
intent
of
those
gestures.
B
C
C
Ben
says
he
likes
the
entrance
access
via
fayette
and
melrose
in
the
corners
of
concept.
Three
ifa
says
during
covet.
We
all
needed
seating
even
during
the
off
season,
and
I
like
a
bench
incorporated
into
the
entrance
area
where
people
can
meet
and
gather
outside
or
around
the
entrance
carol
says
there
are
already
anchor
trees
in
the
corners,
albeit
small
ones,
lilac
and
rose
of
sharon.
C
C
Andrew
says
he
likes
option
three
because
he
increased
safety
for
children.
We
do
need
the
gates
to
be
able
to
close
the
park
at
night
for
the
planter.
I
think
the
herring
for
the
big
brick
pattern.
I
think
the
herringbone
gives
a
better
non-slip
surface
than
the
running
bond.
That
currently
is
there
ifa
says:
can
some
of
the
plants
be
moved
to
other?
I
think
plants
she
may
clarify.
Can
some
be
moved
to
other
parks
like
the
isabella
one,
we're
okay
with
replacing?
D
B
C
A
A
A
E
E
E
So
the
you
know,
you
know
the
bad
news
is
it
could
be
a
little
bit
of
a
racetrack.
The
good
news
is
that
you
know
traffic
doesn't
back
up
there.
You
know
that
street
could
be
half
as
wide
as
it
is
and
it
would
accommodate
the
traffic
on
that
end
of
it.
You
know
it
doesn't
bottle
up
until
over
by
the
garage
and
where
the
bike
lanes
have
been
installed.
F
B
E
A
E
B
B
H
B
Yeah
it's
I
I
love
tom's
comment
about.
You
know
this.
The
street
is
much
wider
than
it
needs
to
be,
and
you
know
there's
there
are,
of
course
this
isn't
this
isn't
boston
parks,
it's
it's
a
different
group
of
people,
but
to
maybe
annie
you
could
put
a
word
in,
but
certainly
having
that
road
be
on
some
sort
of
diet
and
having
the
sidewalk
bump
out
at
a
key
point.
B
But
I
absolutely
concur
that
when
you
have
two
parks
so
close
in
proximity
to
one
another,
it's
it's
a
community
problem
that
should
be
looked
at,
unfortunately,
probably
not
within
annie's
budget,
but
but
certainly
maybe
you
could
put
a
reward
into
traffic
or
something
like
that
and
and
have
that
start.
The
conversation.
E
Yeah
that
took
many
years
to
kind
of
get
on
the
list,
and
then
it
took
almost.
It
seemed
like
a
full
year
to
execute
yeah,
but
it
is
certainly
helpful
versus
the
the
prior
state.
Arlington
is
a
different
condition,
because
there
the
sight
lines
are
better,
but
it's
jam-packed
with
traffic
and
they've
changed
the
timing
of
the
lights
with
the
installation
of
the
bike
lane.
So
now
it
bottles
up
quite
a
bit,
and
that
can
be
quite
a
bit
noisier.
B
I
wouldn't
be
surprised
if
south
charles
street
is
already
on
their
radar
in
some
capacity,
because
there
is
not
a
bike
lane
on
charles
street.
If
you
haven't
noticed-
and
you
know
being
someone
who
is,
you
know,
hasn't
driven
to
work
for
37
years
but
but
has
biked
to
work.
You
know
I
recognize
where
all
the
bike
lanes
are
and
it's
conspicuously
as
absent
in
that
area.
C
C
Andrew
says,
wedding
photos
are
often
I've
been
taken
at
the
park
regarding
the
crossing
of
charles
charles
ifa,
says
it's
not
as
loud
as
arlington
or
isabella
due
to
traffic
backups
and
honking,
and
the
isabella
street
crossing
has
been
great,
as
we
discussed
and
nancy
m
was
the
person
who
spirited
that
effort.
Andrew
wonders
if
a
pedestrian
flashing
light
can
be
funding
through
this
project.
C
A
B
Well,
personally,
I'm
glad
that
majority
of
the
people
seem
to
be
leaning
toward
concept
three,
because
I
personally
being
someone
who's,
had
many
friends
living
in
bay
village
and
actually
actually
worked
on
isabella
street
from
oh
for
eight
years
and
an
architect's
office
right
behind
the
fire
station.
It's
it's.
You
know
going
to
parties
here
and
coming
out
of
bay
village
and
feeling
like
where
is
bay
village,
and
how
does
the
park
connect
with
bay
village?
B
I
think
it's
kind
of
what
this
is
all
about:
it's
a
little
bit
of
an
urban
design
problem
and
and
how?
How
can
this
park
feel
like
it's
being
being
embraced
by
bay,
village
and
a
little
less
by
south
charles
street?
So
you
know
creating
that
nice
soft
friendly
edge
to
south
charles,
but
doing
it
with
planting
and
not
necessarily
with
gates
or
or
nice
materials.
It
says
sort
of
giving
it
the
edge
that
it
should
have
and
then
bay
village
edge
that
it
should
have.
So
I'm
glad
people
are
leaning
that
way.
B
B
To
be
showing
four
benches,
but
it
could
be
three
benches
and,
and
some
could
go
out
at
the
end
right
at
the
entrance
of
the
park-
a
subtle
change
here
we
actually
as
a
result
of
putting
the
entrances
in
the
corners
moved
two
of
the
light
poles.
All
the
light
poles
will
be
dismantled,
rebuilt
and
put
back,
but
they'll
be
a
bit
back
where
we
think
they
seem
best.
B
This
is
actually
putting
a
light
pole
if,
if
it's
a
little
hard
to
see
but
right
at
the
end
outside
the
gates,
so
it's
like
a
little
bit
of
a
post
having
a
historic
light
there.
So
it's
a
it's
a
slight
detail
that
we'd
love
to
get
involved
with
and-
and
you
know
during
the
in
the
real
design
process
once
once
us
an
option
is
selected
that
every
detail,
this
will
be
a
part
where
the
details
matter,
it's
too
small
to
be.
B
B
Well,
I
mean
that's,
did
this
originally?
No.
I
think
someone
may
have
asked
that
in
that
sort
of
40
page
letter,
40
pages
of
letters-
I
read-
I
think
someone
may
have
mentioned
irrigation
so
that
it's
not
a
big
park.
So
I
don't
think
that
would
be
a
problem
putting
that
in
there
as
long
as
the
city,
but
doesn't
mind
metering
it
and
and
having
it
function.
That
way,
I
don't.
I
don't
know
how
how
boston
parks
feels
about
irrigating
parks
just
in
general,
but
I
think
it'd
be
a
great
idea.
B
A
H
B
And
that's
how
ringgold
park
functions
as
well.
There's
this
this
city
comes
out.
You
know
whenever
they
come
out
in
mid
april
or
so
and
turns
on
the
water.
It's
always
a
fight,
saying
you
know
on
a
hot
spring.
You
can
come
out
earlier,
but
once
it's
on
there's
a
spigot
out
there
inside
the
box.
You
can
attach
the
hose
too.
C
A
D
I
was
thinking
I
might
sorry.
I
didn't
clarify
that
because
I
can't
type
that
fast.
What
I
was
thinking
was,
I
liked
all
of
them,
but
you
know
it's
hard
from
and
most
of
us
I
think,
to
look
at
these
drawings
and
understand
all
the
elements
that
they're
talking
about
it
might
be
nice.
I
might
print
up
some
of
these
and
just
walk
around
the
garden
with
a
few
neighbors
and
sort
of
say.
Oh
well,
that's
what
that
is.
D
Oh
there's
the
tree,
that's
what
that
means,
and
you
know
I
love-
I
mean
now
having
pointed
out
the
lights,
the
lights
outside.
I
I
really
like
that
idea,
because
I
think
it
could
be
very
beautiful
and
you
know
the
layout.
It
could
be
more
visually
appealing
from
these
options.
The
way
you
put
them
together
and
it
isn't
really
nice
to
sort
of
stand
in
the
park
and
see
them
ourselves,
and
but
I
think
this
is
I
really
like
a
lot
of
these.
D
I
think
this
is
very
smooth
and
simple,
but
also
you
know,
like
you
said,
every
detail
will
matter
in
such
a
small
space,
but
I
think
you've
thought
of
a
lot
of
it.
So
you
know
I'm
sure,
as
we
move
through
the
process,
we'll
work
out
the
final
details,
but
it
seems
lovely
to
me
I
think,
but
it
might
be
nice
just
you
learn
a
lot
by
standing
there
with
a
drawing
going.
Oh
that's
what
I'm
seeing.
D
B
They
all
function
beautifully
in
their
own
way,
and
it's
subtle.
I
mean
many
times.
We
we
like
something
and
don't
know
why,
and
so
I
think,
taking
you
know
these
options.
Standing
in
this
park
is
a
great
idea,
but
then
taking
them
and
walked
the
other
parks.
I
mean
they're
all
within
a
half
a
mile
of
here
and
and
take
a
look
and
think
oh
yeah,
this
one
enters
on
the
corner
and
oh
yeah,
that
focal
point
on
on
that
kahilca
brand,
the
sculpture
over
there
is
pretty
sweet.
D
And
we
have
walks
with
quite
a
few
neighbors.
We
have
walked
to
other
parks
and
it
does
make
you
realize
how
spatially
important
they
are
as
you
go
through
them.
What
you're
sitting
on
why
you're
sitting
on
it
and
what
are
you
looking
at
and
I
think
that's
something
we
forget
about
in
this
part-
we're
not
always
we've
we're
so
used
to
it.
We're
not
noticing
that
we're,
sometimes
looking
at
less
than
aesthetic
things
traffic
flowing
by
you
know,
there's
nicer
ways
we
can
maybe
draw
our
attention
in
different
ways
with
this.
A
But
right
now
I
cannot
predict
what
my
schedule
is
going
to
be
like.
So
I
should.
I
should
also
say
that
I
won't
be
able
to
when
I
do
have
to
show
up.
I
won't
be
able
to
look
at
emails
during
the
day,
but
I'll
be
checking
them
in
the
evening.
You're
not
allowed
to
take
any
kind
of
electronic
device
into
the
courtroom.
D
A
A
Well,
we
appreciate
your
kind
comments
and
I
want
to
thank
jim
and
aaron
for
doing
such
a
great
job
and
responding
quickly
to
our
comments
and
bringing
a
lot
of
good
thought
into
this.
So
I
think
that
we're
in
a
good
place-
and
I
also
want
to
thank
christine
for
shepherding
us
through
this
meeting
this
evening-.
A
B
Well,
one
thing:
that's
critical,
I
mean
it
seems
that
most
people
leaning
toward
option
three,
but
certainly
as
people
digest
them,
they
may
be
common.
I
mean
our
next
step,
as
annie
mentioned.
The
date
has
not
been
set
up
yet
is
to
come
back
with
the
one
option,
which
may
be
a
combination
of
things.
B
So
somehow
getting
those
comments
to
her
are
critical
for
us
to
produce
something
that
you
know
you
guys
find
palatable
as
sort
of
a
final
option
going
forward
and
it's
you
know-
and
you
know
just
to
switch
your
fears
with
that
comment.
It's
not
that
we
come
back
with
one
option
and
you
and
you
think
I
I'm
stuck
with
this
car.
There
will
then
be
a
design
process
beyond
that
too.
A
B
D
B
And
I
mentioned
to
annie
that
you
know
before
a
a
shovel
is
put
into
the
ground.
I've
got
a
terrific
plant
id
app
on
my
phone
and
in
combination
with
whatever
carol
would
give
us.
I
would
personally
identify
every
plant
myself
and
also
inventory
that,
as
a
pre-existing
condition
prior
to
disturbing
anything
they
mentioned.
If
whoever
second
care
of
the
garden
is
anything
like
me,
you
get
sick
of
looking
at
a
plant
and
it's
no
longer
welcome
in
the
garden,
and
you
might
have
a
few
of
those
in
this
one.
So.
