In Part 2 of Urban Morphology, we look at the agents of change. Who is responsible for destroying the Back O’ Town neighborhood and erecting a City Hall there that no one wants to use? Find out on this edition of “Planner Pop” from River Runs Backwards.
Like a good gumbo, this planter feeds your body and soul. As intense weather patterns and food insecurity batter our cities, Gumbo Box rises to meet new climate challenges by increasing accessibility to home-grown food, encouraging community connections, and reducing runoff by capturing rainwater. During heavy rain events water is stored in a double reservoir system preventing flooding in the planting bed. Long periods of drought are combated with capillary watering tubes. This sub-irrigation minimalizes wasted water evaporating from the surface.
We’re back, and this time, we’re 2. Join us for completely authentic vintage public service announcements and a face-melting jaunt across time in this episode of River Runs Backwards!
