A winding cob wall and information kiosk continues an intersection improvement process that began with a giant sunflower
painted by neighbors on the street surface. The cob kiosk is a place for neighbors to post community-oriented news and
events inside a cabinet made of reused wood. A solar-powered cob and stone
fountain at the corner recycle and filter rainwater harvested from the existing house's roof.
The water then dissipates into bioswales containing native plantings.
