[Summit] Transformation from unproductive and bleak to productive and lush would be a beautiful thing.

[Jim Kelley]

With all of our eyes and neighborhood knowledge, I bet we could find an under used (in the sense of a garden) lot about the size of a house lot (or perhaps an actual former house lot) currently  owned by a commercial or institution who may be persuaded to allow such a transformation.

When I rented for 10 years on 11th St., I greatly lamented my ability to grow more than my porch allowed. I think there are many community building and other positive outcomes if the proper location and allotment process can come to pass. I'd love to hear of places which might be transformed.

By the way, if the urban chicken ordinance passes in the next couple of weeks, perhaps we could truly have Rhode Island Reds back on North Main St!:) You got to see the movie about the Arena at 1111 North Main if you haven't seen it yet. Perhaps we can have a community showing.
