Terrain Work recently unveiled the design for Al Fresco Botanical Garden on the west bank of the Illinois River in Central Illinois. Al Fresco Botanical Garden highlights the flora and fauna found in the riparian riverfront ecology while embracing the site's cultural history as a destination amusement park in the early 1900s. The Botanical Garden also creates a dynamic and infinitely changing series of experiences for visitors based on the rise and fall of the water level of the Illinois River. Taken together, Al Fresco offers an experience of “Ecological Amusement” weaving together the rich natural and cultural history found on the site while showcasing plants from one of the most ecologically productive and diverse habitats found in North America.
