Conceived by artist James T. Mason, this park re-creates Georges Seurat's "Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" painting using sculpted evergreen shrubbery. The scope of the project is impressive: 50 topiary humans, eight boats, three dogs, a cat, a monkey, a real pond and trees. While it's a stretch to envision the pond as the Seine, figures as tall as 12 feet stimulate the... more

Very cool. I brought my Junior girl scout troop here before we went to COSI and they had fun walking around the park looking at everything. Pretty safe even early in the morning. A few people were still sleeping in the area when we arrived but we had no problem and it was worth it to let the kids see it.

Cons

- homeless sleeping on benches and around park

Be sure to visit the topiary garden and store, located downtown right next to the Columbus Metropolitan library. This park was made for the deaf to enjoy but everyone can enojy the amazing life size topiary display. This is also a popular place to get maiired! Be sure to stop by and visit this unique and relaxing garden and park in the heart of downtown Columbus!
