Pictured is the garden in front of my school. Although not much to look at, it gave me inspiration in regard to a garden design that featured all the prominence of what a "desert" is in a dense and compact setting. When you see this type of garden, you know exactly where you are and what you're looking at and I feel a garden featuring desert flora, rocks paths, and other "desert features" would be a neat quick look into the natural environment of the surrounding areas for tourist. This type of garden screams "Las Vegas".

Bicycle Cities

Biking is a popular -& green!- way to travel. Yet if there is nowhere to lock up your bike, people may be discouraged to use their bike to get around. Did you know that you can Request a new bike rack in your area? Cities all over the U.S. have multiple types of bike racks they can install and all you have to do is submit a request. Where would you like to encourage people to use bikes instead of cars? CLICK HERE to learn about bicycling in Chicago.
