CHS Pics | Four Car Park says goodbye to the great Indian Summer of 2012

The pop-up park people behind the Renegade Planners Collective threw one last summer street party Thursday night even though we’re only a few weeks away from Halloween. It’s been a swell run. We hope you enjoyed the vitamin D.

The group CHS photographer Alex Garland found hanging out at E Denny and Summit is a busy bunch:


Seth (Glasses, beard, brown jacket) and Kirk (glasses and grey jacket) studied Urban Design at UW. The other two in the photo are Jackson (Hat, grey jacket, white t-shirt) and James (green jacket) who decided to take on the documentation of Seattle’s Parks. They’re working on a book. Started the project in 2009. Seattle has approximately 360 parks and they have about 305 documented already.

Maybe they can add a few parklets to their list in 2013. You can learn more about the Renegade Planners Collective at facebook.com/rpcollective

An “Indian Summer” is not a long summer lasting into autumn, but rather a summer that returns after a brief foray into winter. This wasn’t one.

You think I just type this stuff without a thought? I disagree with your usage. Circle takes the square!

JSeattle is correct. It means an unusually warm period in autumn, as simple as that, but nice try correcting him/her and being wrong about it :D
