The planting at the Norton Triangle on Sixth Street at Norton is now complete.
“It has been long-awaited and we couldn’t be more delighted,” wrote Caroline Moser, Windsor Square Block Captain Co-Chair, inviting neighbors to “please drive by and check it out!”
The new design is different than the original – it features a California Live Oak and native plantings. The project was accomplished with generous funding from the Windsor Square Hancock Park Historical Society and the Windsor Square Association. Special thanks to for design and implementation efforts go to Cheryl Lerner, Norton Avenue neighbor and garden designer and Scott Goldstein, former chair of the WSA Street Tree Committee with support from the City. The area will be irrigated just until the plants get established.
It really was the efforts of one of the women who live in one of the houses along the triangle that got the traffic island to bloom.
She was out after every storm, sprinkling packets of native plant seeds. This is her result – and nature’s.
