Wilder Street Garden:  A Growing Idea

March 22, 2019 by Bonnee Waldstein

On the short and narrow, yet very busy thoroughfare that is Wilder Street, sits a sad, empty patch of ground.  It’s BART property and is fenced off to protect an auxiliary building for BART which sits on the site.

Notes on the Quarterly Glen Park Association Meeting, July 26, 2018
