Residents of this prewar hospital turned cooperative as well as the neighborhood passerby, delight in views of this lushly landscaped vest pocket entrance courtyard in Park Slope, Brooklyn. In addition to a vibrant three season plant composition, residents enjoy warmer months in the intimate seating area or manicured lawn space. The courtyard's protected micro-climate is ideal for a few southern charmers such as Crepe Myrtle and the fragrant flowering Southern Magnolia, making for a spectacular summer-long flowering display. Well cared-for and respected, this garden continues to improve with age.
