Photograph of the base of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden under construction at the Fort Worth Japanese Garden, which consists of a rectangular enclosure of concrete stilts stuck into the ground. Numerous trenches have been dug around the concrete stilts, which have steel wires projecting out from them, to be used by the wooden frame to be built on it. Several workers walk around the base, and a white truck is visible parked behind the dry garden at right.

Wooden planks have been laid across pairs of stilts, each holding joints for wooden ribs to be laid in between. Several wires are laid across the dry garden's gravel space.

A tractor drives between the stilts, away from the camera, dragging a tool with it and being watched by two workers. An excavator is visible at left between the stilts, and a white truck is parked at right next to a stack of timber.

Photograph of the enclosure of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden under construction at the Fort Worth Japanese Garden. The enclosure, built on short round concrete stilts, has a completed frame, with narrow wooden strips used for parts of the outside wall of the enclosure. The ceiling and several portions of the outside wall remain incomplete. The dry garden's boulders are visible in the garden itself, as well as a tall power pole.

Photograph of a corner of the wooden frame of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden under construction in the Japanese Garden at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden, built on multiple short round concrete stilts. One side has not yet been fully built, with numerous exposed joints in the structure at left. Two saw horses rest near the dry garden's base, while pieces of lumber are scattered under and around the frame.

Photograph of construction of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden at the Fort Worth Japanese Garden. Workers dig trenches with pickaxes and other tools alongside the gravel landscape of the dry garden, with a small yellow trencher machine and a small tractor driven by another worker besides them. The construction takes place within the unbuilt enclosure of the dry garden, its concrete stilts visible around the workers.
