CAME WITH A LONG LIST OF RESTRICTIONS THAT COULD HARDLY BE ATTRACTIVE TO A LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT LIVE PLANTS
WERE STRONGLY DISCOURAGED THE NEED FOR WATER WAS TO BE MINIMIZED OR ELIMINATED ALTOGETHER THE HEIGHT
OF THE LANDSCAPE COULD NOT EXCEED ABOUT THREE FEET THE ACCEPTABLE ROOF LOAD WAS MINIMAL BLACK AND
WHITE STONES ROOF BALLAST HAD ALREADY BEEN PURCHASED AND IDEALLY SHOULD BE INCORPORATED IN THE NEW
DESIGN AND THE BUDGET WAS SLIM "ESIDES THERE WAS NO PUBLIC ACCESS TO THE ROOF GARDEN )N FACT MUSEUM

SUGGESTS A FOCUS ON AESTHETIC OR PRACTICAL ISSUES MORE THAN ECOLOGICAL PROCESSES 3MITHS IDEAS ARE BOLD
