Pocket Parks and North Camden

Subtitle: "Scholars and Residents Make the Desolate Beautiful".

First we define "pocket park". Then we tell you a story about how Rand Institute students and faculty are collaborating with residents to make North Camden much more livable. Then we go to an emerging pocket park at 2nd & York, where a community cleanup and back-to-school bash happened this very day (Aug 26).
