DTR Associates
Honor
DTR Associates of Aurora started from scratch when designing the landscape for a new home in Cleveland. The company was responsible for selecting the exact positioning of the new house and setting the elevations.
An elaborate grading plan accommodates the walkout lower level and raised upper level terrace. The old driveway was demolished and a new driveway installed. DTR built sandstone and bluestone terraces and walks, sandstone walls, boulder retaining walls and a new lawn terrace.
A variety of plantings were installed, including low plantings around the perimeter of the house to let the light inside. A perennial garden is accented with boxwood and hydrangea.
