What do YOU see?

What do YOU see as you travel up and down the Avenue?

Do you see all the places that have been worked on or do you instead focus on the places that need a little TLC?

Have you noticed the new pumps at Turkey Hill?

How about all the work on the grounds of Citizen's Bank?

Have you really looked at the River since the view has been opened up on Delaware Drive?

What about the freshly mowed grass at Dr. Hartley's or the clean up at the Kelly Building?

If we concentrate and build on the areas that are well cared for we can infect the whole avenue with charm and cheer.

See you on the Avenue with broom in hand

Ready for Color

If you look at the park by the bridge you should pick up on 4 things....

1. The river bank has been cleared of debris and is ready for a little color .(I'm thinking along the lines of Tigerlilies, black eyed susans and ? Any other ideas?)

2. The electrical pole was moved by Voltron to a light pole down Delaware Drive. Thanks very much guys.

3. The park is in desperate need of a little clean up and a lot of color. I can hardly wait till I can put some more plants in the ground.

4. I forgot what the 4th thing was. If I remember I'll edit this post.

SOS!

SOS! SOS! SOS! SOS!
Any gardeners or wanna be gardeners with design talent out there that would be willing to help with the first block of Pennsylvania Avenue?
I am looking for a cohesive plan for the whole block and I am also looking for color, LOTS of color, to spice up the Avenue.
Stop in and see me at Encore!, call me at 491-2490, leave a comment here, e-mail me at flowers18336@yahoo.com or see me on the street but PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE come and see me cause otherwise I'll be left to my own devices and you might end up seeing acres and acres of petunias. ( They are really easy to take care of)
SOS (SAVE OUR STREET) from the killer petunias

IT'S GONE

The pole in the bridge park is GONE thanks to Voltron. It bit the dust this afternoon. Now all I have to do is get rid of the Christmas tree pole. The view of the River is getting better all the time.

What we are up to

We have started general clean up on the Avenue. If you're ready to pitch in here are some general guidelines.

1. Get green bins from beside the Boro Building. Only fill them 1/2 full and leave them curbside. Let me know where they are so I can tell the guys to pick them up.

2. Leaf and yard waste can also be put in green bins on Tuesdays for Wednesday pick up.

3. Don't mix garbage of any kind with the gravel or the yard waste. Garbage can be put in plastic bags next to the recycling bins. Only Avenue garbage please, not household garbage.

Thanks for your help
