Narrative |
| This 6,300 square-foot garden on the 8th floor of the Yawkey Center for Outpatient Care was implemented as a calm, serene space for patients and their families. It offers spectacular views of Boston and the Charles River and has an enclosed pavilion for use year-round. The exterior includes a fountain, seating, and pathways in addition to many types of living plants. It is an intensive roof with a 1% slope. The architects were Cambridge Seven Associates, and the Landscape Architects were Halvorson Design Partnership, Inc.
