2022 Landscaping Upgrades

     As part of our ongoing efforts to upgrade and improve Barcelona Building 3, our 2022 budget included funds to install mulch around the entire building and make further landscaping improvements. We began the landscape transformation in November of 2019, when the entire front courtyard was re-designed. In 2019 we installed new eden stone outcroppings to help alleviate the drainage issues and vastly improve the appearance of the courtyard. Many new trees and bushes were installed at this time. The bench was moved to a safer location to make it more accessible to residents. Further improvements were made in 2020 and 2021 with the planting of additional hydrangeas, roses and perennials.

     Other areas of the property began receiving extensive upgrades once our exterior masonry project was completed at the end of 2021. This includes hydrangeas, roses and perennials at every appropriate location surrounding our building.

     Our building maintenance contractor, Guadalupe, was hard at work in May 2022 installing the latest step in our upgrading process in replacing the unsightly brown rocks around the building and planting beds with soil beneficial all-bark mulch. He installed over 50 cubic yards of mulch and topsoil around the entire building. He also installed 110 new perennial plants.
