7th & Taylor Triangle Park

The 7th & Taylor triangle park was managed for many years by Carol. Petworth Blooms took over the space in spring 2023 after she moved away.
Initial work was done to weed and expand the iris bed along 7th St, with future plans to add native plants at the corners with New Hampshire Ave.
