Documented artwork / transit panel installation
Urban Garden Rail
Credit as documented: Saya Woolfalk
Saya Woolfalk's Urban Garden Rail connects two elevated subway stations to East New York's community gardens. MTA dates the work to 2017 and locates it at Pennsylvania Avenue and Van Siclen Avenue on the 3 line. The imagery celebrates neighbors cultivating former vacant lots together and the local circulation of their produce. Gardeners appear against patterned backgrounds that evoke the neighborhood's varied cultures and cooperation across generations.
