This thinking about micro-parks also reminds me of the Park(ing) Day project. On the third Friday in September, people around the world plug parking meters and then create public parks in their parking spaces.

The idea started in 2005, when Rebar created a 2-hour park(ing) installation in a San Francisco neighborhood lacking in public parks. In 2011, there were 975 parks in 162 cities in 35 countries!
