Seven tips for designing with the outdoors:
6) Plant for the Pollinators
Incorporating pollinator habitats into architectural projects is a simple way to design for healthy ecosystems. Native plantings help support pollinators that are vital to our food supplies and need abundant food themselves in order to fly the long distances they typically travel. Pollinator gardens don`t have to be big or take up a lot of space; lining sidewalks, infilling medians, and dotting parking lots and rooftops are simple ways to support pollinators.

Pollinator Garden Design: Kim Smith Designs
Gloucester`s harbor is positioned on a migratory flyway for sea birds and monarch butterflies. Native plantings line the Harborwalk with flowers to feed the butterflies during their migration.

When it is hot and humid, and you really wish you lived at the beach during the summer, you do the best you can……I went to Gloucester, one of my favorite places since forever, for dinner. I love cooling ocean breezes and after dinner sunset views. Dinner at tonnogloucester. Try the espresso martini and calamari. Strongly recommend. #gloucesterma #gloucestermassachusetts #gloucesterharbor #gloucesterharborwalk #espressomartini

Why People Love Our Harbor Walk
The epitome of a fishing community is on display here, with the lobster and fishing boats unloading their goods onto the docks right behind the restaurants who will serve the fresh seafood that day. Great history, interesting museums to visit, and a great place to take a relaxing stroll!
