I remember a lovely community garden on the bus route downtown. I would see people sitting on benches, tending their gardens, lots of lush greens. I remember thinking how wonderful it all was. AND THEN, developers ripped it all out and put up condos. The image still disturbs me.

Where is Euclid Ave? Will we have photos of your gardens soon?
