The Brooklyn Eagle reports that the “Garden to Cafe” plot at P.S. 29 will be coming back bigger and better than ever:
Brooklyn Eagle: Andrea Wenner, executive director of Out2Play, a non-profit that plans and oversees playground construction in city schools, assured the Eagle that the garden at P.S. 29 will be back, and better than ever.
“The garden will be replaced with nice new planter beds in a whole new enclosed area. It will be a little bit bigger than it was,” she said.
The garden improvement, however, is just a small part of the bigger picture at P.S. 29. Work has finally begun on a makeover of the bleak asphalt play space surrounding the vaulted garden. The old-fashioned blacktop is being replaced with a colorful new playground, which will include a large open area for sports, a running track and jungle gym equipment.
Rachel Ray and Mayor Bloomberg visited the garden earlier this year.
