This Friday, Spend Some Time in a Temporary Park
Friday, September 19, 2008 is officially PARK(ing) day–a one-day, global event centered in San Francisco, where citizens collaborate to temporarily transform metered parking spots into temporary public parks!
This basically translates into people occupying parking spots for the whole day and decking them out with grass, benches, and trees (or whatever artistic things they can think of); while paying the parking meter on the spaces. Great if you are a pedestrian, but a little taxing for the cars. Nevertheless, if you are driving to the city on Friday, plan on finding a garage, otherwise, enjoy!! 
I love it I love it I love it!
I want to make a park!

I saw the rolling park car participating in this year’s Lovefest (2008)!! Such a great concept, makes me want to plant grass everywhere!
