The previous owners had laid concrete slabs on= the ground in the area closest to the house, but the space was otherwise c= overed in grass. We allowed it to grow wild our first summer here. The brus= h got so high that our dog, Sasha, would walk out and disappear. We wanted = to turn our barren backyard into a place that we=E2=80=94my husband, Henry,= our son, Gavin, and myself=E2=80=94could enjoy.

Overhaul an overgrown urban garden=

Two years ago, = we bought this 2,000-square-foot townhome, located between the Crown Height= s and Prospect Lefferts neighborhoods. The attached single-family house was= built in 1908, and we=E2=80=99ve been slowly working on updating it. Last = year, with the pandemic grounding us at home, we got to work renovating our= backyard.

 

The yard was a = blank canvas. The previous owners had laid concrete slabs on the ground in = the area closest to the house, but the space was otherwise covered in grass= . We allowed it to grow wild our first summer here. The brush got so high t= hat our dog, Sasha, would walk out and disappear. We wanted to turn ou= r barren backyard into a place that we=E2=80=94my husband, Henry, our son, = Gavin, and myself=E2=80=94could enjoy.

Henry and I kne= w we wanted a deck with built-in seating, and we loved the modern look of h= orizontal fencing. We liked bluestone pavers and wanted to incorporate= it. But our first concern was to identify and solve some engineering probl= ems. We=E2=80=99d had a water issue in our fence-enclosed backyard since we= bought the place=E2=80=94flooding whenever it rained. We needed a contract= or who could fix that.
