This is my second look at landscaping and beautification efforts in Old Town. Previously, I mentioned the crews that do the work, but after talking with a lady doing some gardening the other day, I realized it’s also the individual home owners too.
By the way, I picked Chatham Square as my second entry because it provides a contrast with Ford’s Landing. Unlike Ford’s Landing, which is marked by signs and stands out as its own distinct part of the neighborhood, Chatham Square, a mixed-income set of housing, blends in more with its surroundings. I kept looking for a sign, but from what I could see, there’s only one small one, and it's not even visible from the street. I'm sure this is intentional, part of the effort to make it sympathetic to its surroundings, yet puzzling in some ways.
