“A large and attractive retaining wall was recently constructed…”
.
(a) It’s definitely large.
(b) It’s definitely not attractive. I’m the son of a civil engineer so I appreciate good infrastructure when I see it, but there is no beauty there.
(c) Who cares if it’s attractive because the owner doesn’t have to look at it!
.
In cases like this I think about the universality principal: What would the city / area / bayou / neighborhood look like if everyone did this?
Nice Neighbor
Are they tearing down the 6400 sq foot structure on the land it because it flooded? Did it flood before or after the wall? Right at a bend in the Bayou, I wouldn’t touch the property with a ten foot pole, much less with $2.6 million hard earned dollars.
