PROJECT STATMENT: Situated between A Mountain and the Santa Cruz River, Mission Garden serves as a community hub for Underground Water Basin seasonal produce festivities, weekly classes and lectures and daily historical preservation. From the native tree grove that stretches along West Mission Lane to the sporadic placement of pavilions as means for community engagement, the design of this proposal highlights how Mission Garden lives up to its nickname as “Tucson’s birthplace”. With that said, the current proposal is an expansion of Mission Garden while maintaining the history that was laid out by the Tohono O’odham and various diverse cultures for future generations.
