Saleh BurqanGarden on 1st circle - GAM responsibility. Great idea, SLOPPY & SOUL-LESS finishing. Do you want a kid to rip his thigh or poke an eye out with that rusty metal pipe sticking out of what is supposed to be a fountain? Do you want a kid to slice her arm or neck on that glass? Do you want a man in a wheel chair to get on the sidewalk and into the garden, or do you want him to just look at it from the street? Do you want the coffee cart guy to get off the road? Are we being sensible and soulful, or are we just sloppy and stupid?

U know Huda, I think it’s everybody’s responsibility. Smtg got done wrong in public space, everyone who cares should get involved and help fix it. I say we coz if we want to remain spectators, then we are part of the crime also. I’ve had conversations with the designer and people at GAM and they say they’re on it, but I guess they feel there is no rush… so the convo will continue till the job gets done.
