Choreographed Snow in Buffalo Becomes Winter Park

If life hands you snow make giant mounds. Buffalo is just across the Niagara River from where I live but gets a helluva lot more snow. Madrid born University of Buffalo architecture professor, Sergio López-Piñeiro, has developed a "snow plow master plan":
This winter, choreographed snow plows will build fifteen seven-foot tall snow mounds creating areas for sledding, people watching, and wandering. And in a nod to Olmsted, Front Park's winter design will provide a constant opening of new views, allowing pedestrians unique vantage points of Lake Erie not available in warmer weather.
GOOD
