Summary

Collected Info: The buildup of information regarding the design of my vicarious pocket park entry which will serve as a foundation I plan on using for catalyzing its structure. The photos and their accompanying commentary will shed light on reasoning behind particular decisions I will make in the ensuing days of planning. The manner of how I marshaled the aforementioned info includes the taking of photos and online research. I will categorize all of my findings into seven different categories. Each given category will have a cover photo, with links to their respective photos in the comment sections.
