Superkilen Park

This guide to Superkilen Park in Copenhagen starts at a bright pink Thai boxing ring in a Nørrebro neighborhood once scarred by gang turf wars along ethnic lines. It follows the architects' unusual decision to skip a conventional park design and instead ask the area's residents, who trace roots to some sixty countries, what they missed from home, gathering objects like a Baghdad swing set, Brazilian benches and a Moroccan-style fountain into one stretch of ground. Every object carries a small plate naming where it came from, turning the walk into something more than a stroll through a monument.
