Story Post: Mr. Eaton’s Skyline Arboreal Gardens

“Come one, come all, to Mr. Eaton’s Skyline Arboreal Gardens! Built upon the remnants of old skyscrapers, Mr. Eaton’s gardens offer an incredible view of the surrounding area, along with the most diverse collection of trees in the entire Borderlands. We’ve got the classics your children have never seen before- tall, strong Redwood trees, colorful Rainbow Eucalyptus trees, and soft, wavy Willows! But that’s not all- Mr Eaton has spent years and years collecting saplings from all over the globe, and raising them here in the Borderlands. What difference does that make, you ask? Why, all the difference in the world! As the Borderlands have changed, so too have some of our trees, which now light up when it rains, or shift their genus over time, or even sing as the wind blows! You won’t want to miss out on the incredible view of the city at night from the highest vantage point in 35 miles, nor will you want to miss out on seeing what incredible trees Mr. Eaton has managed to grow. Purchase your tickets and take the day off, for a wonderful all-ages experience!

Score 2. The skyline seems at odds with the gardens. It puts you at a distance when you’d really rather be up close.

Score 4. Replacing skyscrapers with redwoods sounds like a good idea, if you’ve got the science for it.

Score 4 sounds like an adventure

Score 1. I think I feel like throwing silly names in is a shortcut. Couldn’t we all be churning out Mimblethorpe Eskatoon Spumpyspump-Argylle’s Garden and calling it a day?

Score 1 Like Josh said, the name doesn’t reflect well on the rest of the acronym, which isn’t all that compelling anyway.
