This cob kiosk and curved benches frame a new welcoming plaza in front of the offices of Southeast Uplift Neighborhood Program. The information station provide neighbors, staff, and community members an outdoor place to relax, meet, and talk. The kiosk include a green roof, inlaid bricks and stones, and a cabinet of reused windows and wood. The benches be cob, with inlaid bricks and a slate cap. A foundation of reused concrete support the structures, and the new paving is permeable to allow rainwater to soak into the soil.
