Delaire Landing Condos a Gated Community In Torresdale Philadelphia Pa

Delaire Landing Condos in the Torresdale section Of Philadelphia Pa. A beautiful Gated Community.This is Will Kane the president of our condo association and his son Danny.They have been working very hard to restore the Asian Gardens located in our Courtyard atCondo section #1 called the GARDENS known for the beautiful flowers and gardens.

We have been very fortunate to have a new neighbor John a gardener by hobby . He knows how to shape and trim up bushes. Here we are a group of us working hard. Together we can clean up this beautiful Garden that has been neglected for so many years. It was back breaking work. Bushes that had been only topped and  trimmed..Leaves that had been blown underneath these bushes for years and had to be bagged and disposed of. There were old bottles and lots of other trash.

Then came the electric saws..the rakes,the brooms,clipper, and numerous trash bags...

It was a beautiful warm day in Delaire Landing .The sun was shinning .The birds were singing.The neighbors came out with extra trash bags .The walkers came to chat and watch.Some of the neighbors sat on the benches and observed.Yes it was a Fresh Spring smell in the air. The cutting of the bushes smelled so good..Arms were bleeding from the stickers;but that did not stop the hard-work or determination....to restore this garden...Spring water,soda,and iced tea that was the drink of choice today....Trudy and I raked and loaded up the trash bags with all the debris as the men cut and shaped the trees and bushes.We had the easy job compared to backbreaking job that they did!

Now we have to take the big branches to the dump!Maury,John,Will.Trudy,and myself piled up all the big branches and put them behind Danny's pickup truck.We had to load it up. After numerous trips Danny and Will disposed of as much as they could..the rest will have to be picked up by other means.

We could have hired a landscaper to do this job but it would have cost the residents at Delaire Landing Condos thousands of dollars! So as a group all pitching in together.. working hard enjoying each others company.. we not only saved money... we learned from each other... enjoyed the sunshine and spring fresh air,,and felt a great feeling of accomplishment and camaraderie...... Now every year as the Garden grows we can Share and Reminisce....

Delaire Landing Condo is Located in the Torresdale section of Philadelphia Pa. It is a Gated Community .This project was started in the Spring by the residents of Condo One called the Gardens.There are eight condo associations that join together in one Master Council.

Here are the pictures of the Gardens in the Summer we have all been enjoying the beauty we have helped create.The beauty that had been neglected in this lovely Gated community by the river.
