Flowers inside skateboard planter on 7th Street destroyed


[Reader photo from April]

Back in April, a small bed of flowers inside a tree guard made out of skateboard decks on Seventh Street between Avenue A and Avenue B drew praise from neighbors.

Someone even took the time to leave a sign noting: "Thanks skateboard gardener! The flowers are awesome!"

Unfortunately, most of the flowers were destroyed. Per a reader: "Someone killed all the sunflowers and wildflowers planted in the skateboard planter [Monday] night."







We even heard from the Skateboard Gardener, who said: "Very frustrated people couldn’t leave them alone to grow."

And here are some photos of the plot coming to life earlier this year...

Props for the Skateboard Gardener of 7th Street



In recent weeks, someone created a tree guard made out of skateboard decks here on Seventh Street between Avenue A and Avenue B ... and planted flowers ... the effort has inspired an admirer to leave behind a message of thanks, as these photos by EVG reader boxysean show...
