Description
General Description
The beds of annuals, perennials, shrubs and small trees serve as an entry feature for Scott Building's main entrance (Building 80). The foundation plantings serve as a back drop to the benches and tables that line the building's entrance, a popular place for residents to sit during warmer months, mainly due to the shade provided by the building. These plantings date outside the period of significance and are, therefore, recommended as non-contributing.
