Tiny parks took the place of on-street metered parking in hundreds of cities around the world, as urban planners and environmental activists celebrated Park(ing) Day. Intended as a demonstration of the lack of open space in urban areas and the waste associated with circling for parking, the celebration was created two years ago by a San Francisco art collective. Merchants and drivers don't like it, but the movement is growing rapidly. Seems that benches, lawns (even fake ones), gardens, art and recreation in urban settings are in demand.
