This once tiny and mostly sloped back yard is being reclaimed and reinvented. We first constructed new retaining walls to match the existing stone work along the house. Then we framed a large deck that projects out over the slope, and is contained by a cedar wall. The new back stoop directs one to the deck and to the new walk that connects to the drive.
