This miniature woodland on a small public property in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is actually composed of three miniature woodlands: An “upland forest” of densely planted saplings on a berm separates the park from the street; a “midland forest” takes the shape of an urban grove with seating and small flowering trees; and a “lowland forest” at the tip of the triangle features wet-tolerant species above a subterranean cistern for collecting and cleaning stormwater. Triangle park is also a laboratory of sorts, allowing conservationists to observe which tree species are best suited to the Cambridge environment.
