Magic Gardens, was truly magical! If you have seen the travel vlog you know that it was bit of a challenge to make it here but I am so glad we did.
Magic Gardens is an outdoor art installation which covers almost the whole block. Isaiah Zagar, a local artist who began tiling South Street in the 1960s and never stopped. "... Zagar created the space using nontraditional materials such as folk art statues, found objects, bicycle wheels, colorful glass bottles, hand-made tiles, and thousands of glittering mirrors. The site is enveloped in visual anecdotes and personal narratives that refer to Zagar's life, family, and community, as well as references from the wider world such as influential art history figures and other visionary artists and environments." via
It is definitely a unique place to visit. I was amazed to see the intricacies of the mosaics and the use of bicycle rims and toilets in the 'garden.' You can spend hours analyzing all the different walls and pointing out the unique elements. Magic Gardens was truly an amazing experience which you have to see for yourself. My words and pictures are not doing it justice.
