Down Below Where The Crows Go

    and the flowers grow

A temporary community garden has sprung up in a now vacant lot below the rooftop garden of the old Telephone Exchange Building. 

The neighbours who do not have a rooftop garden were pleased with this temporary arrangement of a communal garden in the now empty spot awaiting redevelopment.

It was lovely to see people's passion for tending a garden and growing your vegetable or flowers. Grandparents with grandchildren appeared, helping with the watering. It is also an occasion to talk to your neighbours and discuss the gardens and their plants.

             

                       

Some have personalised their spot in the gardens and has stirred the passion for growing flowers and home grown vegetables.

          

As the sunflowers crane themselves to catch the last bit of sun, its is also known that the garden will not remain in its current location. Another type of crane will be replacing them to join Vancouver ever-changing skyline.
