Sur les paves, la ferme.
Linda Frye Burnham / 01:13 PM

"Over the pavement, the farm." That's the slogan from the 1968 student riots in Paris that gave two architects the idea to propose creating a farm in the courtyard of the P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center in Long Island City, Queens, for the summer. Dan Wood and Amale Andraos of Work Architecture won this year's Young Architects competition in New York with their plan for an urban farm featuring produce growing out of concrete-pouring cardboard tubes used at construction sites. Read more and see pix in the Art & Design section of today's N.Y. Times.
