Project Description: This West Village duplex on Christopher Street features three terrace gardens and one rooftop garden. The original landscape design of the terraces is by Gunn Landscape Architecture, PLLC. Alive Structures has been maintaining and modifying the design and plant palette since 2010. Since beginning our work on this property we have expanded the landscaped areas to all the peripheries on the roof, creating a border garden of tall grasses, creeping vines, edible grapes, and a majestic Wisteria.
