ANOTHER STEP CLOSER

Middletown, Delaware

This will soon be our new home and community - Bayberry


On this visit we went to inspect all the lighting and security system that we added. 
Everything is looking good!


Every time we pull up to our new house, we are excited to see the progress.
It's moving right along.


There I am leaning on my future porch.


The parkway across the street from our house is coming along quite nicely.
It has a quiet, open feel that we're happy about :)


Fredrick Law Olmsted

Our new development, Bayberry, named all of their streets after famous and creative individuals such as philosophers, artists, poets, architects, etc.  Names that you may of heard: Da Vinci, Calder, Gehry, Socrates, Picasso, just to name a few.
Our street is named after landscape designer, Fredrick Olmsted.  Mr. Olmsted is popularly considered to be the "father of American landscape architecture".  Olmsted was famous for co-designing many well-known urban parks including Central Park in NYC, Prospect Park in Brooklyn, the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC, just to name a few.

This really resonated with us from the moment we visited the community.

Hope you're enjoying this journey with me and the mini history lesson.
Cheers!
