We had formed a partnership with Our Piece of the Pie to maintain the garden this summer, as OPP has a workforce development program in landscaping, but unfortunately OPP became overwhelmed by helping students who had been signed up to work this summer through Blue Hills Civic Association.  I think, however, that the garden looks quite nice, overgrown as it is.

The exterior door to the basement, which was under the deck, has also been removed and bricked up.  Actually, “cinder blocked up.”  The cinder blocks beneath the deck were original – maybe?  They predate NINA, and it seems a good guess that they were installed the sun room was added to the house in the 1940s.
