Description

This scholarly work examines the history and significance of community gardens with self-built structures in New York City's low-income neighbourhoods, particularly the South Bronx, since the 1970s. The book explores how urban residents have created and maintained these shared public open spaces through participatory design and self-building efforts, reflecting individual gardeners' preferences and community values. Despite competing land use interests, changing resident populations, and complex city planning challenges, these gardens have persisted as vital components of the urban landscape. The study investigates the relationship between community participation, architectural design, and urban agriculture, offering insights into grassroots urban development and the role of residents in shaping their neighbourhoods through collective action and creative adaptation of public spaces.
