Rogers Park Business Alliance partnered with the Peterson Garden Project in the fall of 2013 to turn the empty lot at the corner of Ashland and Howard into a community garden. Sparkfactor designed an outdoor gateway treatment consisting of three large graphic panels for the garden gate. Brightly colored vintage etchings of flora bring the Peterson Garden Project and the Howard Street branding together in a universally accessible, welcoming design. The resulting installation enlivens the surrounding public space, creating interest in the community and beautifying the streetscape.
