This unusual urban garden, created by Winnifred Lutz, is a permanent installation at The Mattress Factory, a museum of contemporary art. Inspired by the urban and natural history of the site, the three-quarters of an acre garden is “a vignette of past times within the framework of contemporary Pittsburgh, like archeological sites in Rome and Jerusalem.” Trees, shrubs, vines, and grasses native to Pennsylvania are used. The Heinz Architectural Center of The Carnegie Museum of Art featured this garden installation in its 1996 exhibition, "A Century of Women Landscape Architects in Pittsburgh."
