Unfortunately, I've just now noticed that my original post, that happened at 2am Tuesday morning, did not post. 

My photo grid captures signage within Bryant Park. Signage that may have otherwise been overlooked. From warning signs, to directional signs, to activities and services offered at the park.

These signs assist in keeping order in a seemingly free-flowing, self organized landscape. It allows for leisure activities to take place at freewill, however there is still order to it all. 

This shows that even after the landscaping is done, work is always happening, and it is a living landscape.

cool concept, i though that signs were an interesting addition to the parks. i notice some had no signs, while others like the Highline have signs and symbols everywhere.

I think the concept of sign and its related human activities are interesting. Thinking about how people react to different signage, how signage involve with different human activities. Landscape is a living system with visible and invisible signs.
