Yes, I was at Harvard Yard a couple weeks ago and the soil and plants
look much healthier than Clark Park!
Penn did copy the new chair scheme in Clark Park from Harvard Yard. But
the new Clark Park chairs are painted the same bright orange that poor
people must wear on the UCD chain gang. (Harvard's chairs are
multi-colored.)
These orange chairs have "Property of Clark Park" stamped on them much
like the jumpsuits say "Property of Community Court." For the people
who have been harassed over the past couple years by bike cops, these
orange chairs send a chilling psychological reminder: Keep out or you
will be jailed!
And yes, that bizarre yellow lawn is consistent with the consumer
complaints of "burning" with roundup use. That Walnut St. site is the
most extensive, if people want to check out these chemical burns.

I haven't heard mention of this compost tea in this discussion, I
first heard about it on this old house:
