Burlington Avenue NE Old Northeast Side Yards
Burlington Avenue NE runs east-west through Historic Old Northeast, where side yards are often the only path to the courtyard, the alley, and the condenser. A loose shell path or a settled concrete strip makes the gate drag and puts the air handler in a puddle.
PaverForge Hardscapes sets flush side-yard pavers and small equipment pads so the gate still swings, the condenser keeps its clearance, and storm water keeps moving toward the alley instead of the stem wall.
Side-yard build notes
Gate swing and latch height are measured before the base goes in
Condenser and hose-bib pads stay flush so a mower or cart does not catch an edge
Downspout splash is kept off the paver joint with a small basin or extension
Oak roots along the fence line are bridged or cut only where a root-aware plan allows
Why the base is the job
Side yards on Burlington Avenue NE are shaded and stay damp. A sand-set field without compaction pumps fines up through the joints. We use a compacted stone base, a restrained edge against the fence, and polymeric sand rated for wet shade.
