This photograph was taken of a public neighborhood park withing the Mt. Laurel community. This picture obviously portrays the New Urbanist principle of "Preserving Trees." The stone pillars in the foreground represent the formal entrance to the park. Also notice how wide the sidewalk is at the park entrance. This is to show that this place is public and all are welcome to enjoy. Feel free to take advantage of this great neighborhood amenity. The trees which exist in this space are natural to the habitat and form a great natural park area. This park is surrounded by residences. I think this design is great and promotes children and adult interactions either after school or after work. And these interactions are taking place in a calm and beautiful setting. I would expect this feature to be fully taken advantage of by the residents of this neighborhood. I know I would.
