Boston Children's Hospital To Open New Rooftop Garden

BOSTON (CBS) -- Boston Children's Hospital will unveil their new rooftop garden Tuesday.

The garden, which will be on top of the Berthiaume (Main) Building, comes nearly two years after the Prouty Garden was closed amid controversy to make room for another building.

It will also feature patient artwork in two canopies over a seating area.
