Chicago Residence

Time Line

Originally designed summer of 1995, with some "tweaking" in 2002. Original installation was in Fall of 1995. Some minor remodeling of the home in 2002 affected the landscape and how it is viewed from the house, so we revisited the garden in 2002. Also, what was sunny, had become very shady, so we made some adjustments

Description

This city property is the home and office of the owner. It is also home to several tenants who have separate entrances to both the house and coach house in back.

All lawn was removed and a park-like seating area was created for anyone who cares to use it. Notice how the custom fence repeats the detailing on the existing three story deck.

Miscellaneous

This garden was featured on a garden walk for the Landscape Design Association in 1997.
