Blooming Garages over 3 Decades Old


There's a garage up in the upper west side of Manhattan that has been the base of a lotus garden for about three decades now. The Lotus Garden, a tranquil spot nestled on 97th street between Broadway and West End Avenue, came to be when a man from Manchuria asked if he could put his lotuses that he had been growing on a tub in the garden while it was being prepped.  Now 30 years later, after efforts of preserving and numerous hands in charge of it, the Lotus Garden stays. Generations have been maintaining this spot. 

Check out the article for more info on who's hands been in charge of the garden and how to visit!
