      1. Grieg Garden

        Once a parking lot, Grieg Garden is now a cozy clearing surrounded by trees and flowering shrubs. Situated on the north side of the HUB Yard, it's best viewed in the spring, when rhododendrons and azaleas frame the space in drifts of lavender, crimson, magenta and pink. The garden features the likeness of Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, in a bronze bust originally cast for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition of 1909.
