In these modern times, overpopulated cities aren't unusual. Combined with a scarcity of space and a green green grass, it can often appear like you're living in a concrete jungle with nothing green around. While public parks can do the job, you're a lucky one if you can find one next to your office or apartment. Most of us have no non-public place to sit with mates and just relax under the sky!
In New York nonetheless , they have came up with an answer" sort of. A group that joins "brands and financiers with creative ventures that shape and challenge the cultural landscape," called The Participation Agency, came up with a concept for downtown dwellers to experience suburban life. For a luscious price ($50/hour), you can rent an urban backyard! Of course, this does not appear awfully practical if you consider the indisputable fact that there are 8,000,000 N. Y. Residents, but with the Timeshare Backyards idea, this concept has a chance.
Here's the plan: for 50 dollars, you get a decent grassy lot for an hour and an option to invite up to thirty mates. Desire more? Then you have got to go deeper in your pockets. For $100, you'll get a Slip 'n ' Slide, while for a kiddie pool, you want to add $50 more. The same thing applies if you want to grill: you will get a B.B.Q with the capacity to feed 10 folks. These are only some examples, of course; you can ask The Participation Agency for anything and they'll arrange it for a cost. For example, you may have a local band play for you if you get a permit and pay $5000.
The 1st rental backyard is located on Ludlow Street in Manhattan's Lower East Side, an area some believe to be the city's hipster HQ. The back garden was inaugurated on Aug 11th and stayed in business until Aug 28th, which was scheduled continually for the entire summer. We'll see if this brave and somewhat funny project will last long enough to celebrate its first birthday, and hopefully someone will come up with an analogous scheme in Toronto. Toronto condos are greate to live in, but often you need your green space.
