Sidescapes: Pretty Corner

Our walks regularly include a stroll past what I call Pretty Corner, because it is just that: a lovely a spot where one neighbour in particular participates in the city’s Adopt A Corner program.

This initiative, formally known as Green Streets, sees the City (taxpayers) pay for plant materials when a neighbour takes over a roundabout (traffic circle) or corner bulge that serves as a traffic calming mechanism, and then the volunteer takes care of the little plot of land from that point forward.

I guess you could call this post a tease, because the image takes you just past the actual corner of public property, but it gives a sense of our city’s greenery, and I’ll publish some shots of the corner itself as blossoms progress.
