Rogers Park resident Neil Smith’s daily summer strolls with his 5-year-old daughter, Amelia, often include a stop to see the colorful wildflowers, buzzing bees and chirping birds at the intersection of Pratt and Ridge boulevards.

“It’s a pleasure to walk by and see this,” Smith said. “Any green space in the city, especially for bees and butterflies, is crucial.”
