Lowry Reading Garden
4.7 (13)park
A peaceful pocket park framed by granite book spines, with sheltered nooks and literary quotes built for quiet reading.
Description






Dedicated to the late Lewis Borden, with art donated by the Borden family, the park incorporates sculptures and sheltered seating into a literary retreat. The book titles inscribed across the stone surrounds were dedicated by hundreds of individuals alongside a collection of neighborhood favorites. The layout balances solitary contemplation with room for school groups and friends to gather, an arrangement recognized with a 2009 Mayor’s Design Award.
