A friend of mine sent me this photo of recycled pop/soda bottle planters attached to a light pole in the James J. Byrne Memorial Playground (site of the Old Stone House) in Brooklyn (5th Ave at 3rd Street). Note the brackets that look professionally made and the overflow drain holes.
The photo obviously doesn't do justice to the idea because whatever was growing in them has now died in the cold autumn weather. What a creative use of these very efficient planters. Does anyone know the story of how they got there?
