Spring break

Spring inside the tree guard made out of skateboard decks here on Seventh Street between Avenue A and Avenue B... TY Skateboard Gardener!

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...

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...
