There was a gentleman on Centre Street years ago who nicely landscaped that strip with deep purple azaleas and evergreens.<br /><br />The area around the milestone was my first choice for this post, with the Makita drill box, the discarded automobile tire, and the wash of stones from the path up to Linwood Square.
