The design of the PARK FOR YOUR LIFE, is a contemporary design. Urban trees is maintained park, with replacement of three trees located in the bunker, on 3rd-trees and 2 nd magnitude scale, ash and magnolia a Fresno, and Magnolia deciduous, evergreen with a rich aroma spring. The design premise was to keep the spatial flow, yet placing more equipment (seats)spaces that allow the relationship with the other passer, but also lighting and security at a time. Facilities thus stands to benefit from the shade of the tree and the relationship visual xeric shrubs and plants placed in beds of orange. The materialization was used deck floors and cementitious floors. The beds both the park and the school, choose drought-tolerant species of low maintenance, less water-resistant cold climates, dry and arid. The space to exhibit the sculpture, designed by Joel Saffe Berardo, this materialized in concrete and steel or stainless steel Cut me. The objective of the sculpture is power transmittung the meaning of children. Why is the child center of a rainbow surge representing the joy and love

A simple design which retains the existing eight trees in the park space while it lowers the bunker wall to bench height and plants it with drought‐resistant grasses. The outer edge of the lowered bunker wall supports a table‐like wooden bench/table which extends beyond a new, inner pair of trees (a magnolia and an ash) and encloses them completely. (The use of wood in this structure may be problematic, likewise its unbroken edge which will attract skateboarders.) The inner four existing trees are surrounded by low walls while the outer four are sunk in shallow square pits in the pavement (which will likely attract garbage.) There is a wooden walkway running S‐N to the outside of the inner row of park space trees which, being made of wood, might not be suitable for this location. Benches in the park space are of an unattractive, utilitarian design in black iron identical to those currently installed in the parkette. They have no armrests so they can be slept as well as sat upon. Lighting shown consists of low light columns which will not be adequate for safety. A school (or daycare) is suggested as non‐medical use for the west end of the KHC building which is interesting although there are no facilities for children in the parkette design, in a location which is not suited to such facilities or the activities they encourage. A sculpture, of a child in the centre of a rainbow, by the submitter's brother, Jose Saffe Berardo is a decorative feature of this design.
