The total cost of the project was estimated at $14,986.
The project is intended to provide “a tranquil gathering space while re-introducing some of the lost wildness of this site’s pre-industrial past, and restoring native tree species and meadow to the water’s edge,” according to a press release announcing the award. The landscape installation is also intended to invite reflection on climate change, said DownCity Design.
Anderson and Design Under Sky were behind the popular 10,000 Suns, an installation of sunflowers on two undeveloped parcels in the I-195 Redevelopment District.
The City Works program is sponsored by the Rhode Island Foundation and the city of Providence.
