Offers what? Not too many people use or have the word "respite" in their everyday speech . . . is that spite and spite again? Like "re-think"?
As you can see from one of the stunning images taken at twilight by David Jolkovski that accompanied the article it's not a "pocket park" - it's exposed with public access on three sides, with this one looking south across Main Street. The open location with benches facing the acrylic sculpture configurations, is on the north side leading to/from a parking area, and on the east side occupies the space next to Il Viniao restaurant.
The post on this site titled "Valley Metro Public Art > The Shadow of A Memory" has images from the daytime with this longitudinal view of the streetscape looking east on Main Street and a cyclist walking his bike enjoying the scenery.
Twilight or daytime, thanks to Valley Metro and the City of Mesa, Creative Place Making and the role of an artist get highlighted in not just one but two reports.
Connect to and read both.

As noted in the Oct 29 post on this site, one source was Cindy Ornstein, Arts & Culture Director for The City of Mesa, who sent some details about how the design of the Valley Metro Public Art space evolved after Rob Antoniak, Valley Metro's Community Outreach go-to guy hooked us up.
The Mesa Tribune article did include those.
