Description

Explore the history and evolution of community gardens and self-built structures in New York City. This book examines how shared public open spaces have functioned in low-income neighborhoods, such as the South Bronx, since the 1970s. It looks at the ways urban residents use participatory design and self-building efforts to create these spaces, making them a lasting part of the urban landscape. Despite facing conflicting land use interests, changing resident groups, and contradictory city planning, these community gardens have remained active. The text explores how both the gardens and the self-built casitas serve as expressions of individual gardener preferences. This work provides a deep look into urban agriculture and the role of resident-led design in shaping the modern city environment.
