tarred walls, Environmental Center in Highland Park, NJ

The concrete retaining walls winding across the environmental center site are to support berms of flowers and grasses. Now we can see just how high the earth will finally stand: to the height of the black-tar coating applied on July 20 and 21. Earth and plantings will sometimes envelop the wall, sometimes slope diagonally across it. Within the circle of walls, a shaded patio will be a main gathering point. See view from street.
