Garden Point; On the Docks Entry





Garden Point

Garden Point, a landmark on the urban and the river bank landscape, is an urban destination that creates opportunity to engage the river summer and winter. Accessed from the Waterfront Drive sidewalk one walks into a new environment of planted forest and garden.  A wood and concrete environment creates a controlled natural setting with a paved walking path to the river. Above the river is the outdoor viewing platform that provides an elevated view of the river. 

The multistory greenhouse provides a plant filled environment in the winter. The interior of the greenhouse provides a winter sanctuary: a refuge for the body and the mind. From this warm vantage point the user can absorb winter sunlight, take in the scenic river view and disengage from the urban landscape. It is a place to sit and be encompassed by warmth and tranquility. 

The wood framework on the concrete pedestals provides a harmonious framework that blends with the forest and the garden landscape. This structure is a gesture of hope in the landscape a beacon of humanity at peace with the natural environment.
