Beautification

Concrete Planters


March 2024

All 10 concrete planters were replanted in Larchmont Village under the guidance of Beautification committee chair Romi Cortier. He worked closely with Virgo Designs and Landscaping, as they replanted the pots, choosing 4 drought resistant plants: Spanish Lavender, Asparagus fern, statice, and casa blue dianella.

Our next goal is to replant the medians with an expanded concept that includes these same plants, as well as other fresh elements.




Larchmont Central Park(let)


February 2024 presented in The Larchmont Chronicle.

This idea seeks to reconfigure the city parking Lot in the heart of Larchmont, in a way that will add trees and seating. It will also utilize one parallel parking space on the Street, as a counterbalance to the trees and seating in the reconfigured city parking lot. We welcome public comment.

Larchmont Blue


This beautification concept seeks to utilize new blue metal park benches, with matching blue metal garbage cans, for the purpose of creating a branded look that is exclusive to Larchmont. There are currently 8 wooden benches on the westside of Larchmont in the village, and none on the east side of the street. This project would work to add these signature benches to both the village and upper Larchmont, with the goal of unifying the entire boulevard. This includes replacing the existing wooden benches. Our goal would be to create 'legacy benches' with donations from Larchmont's long history of legacy families.




LBA Merch


April 2024

The LBA has created an exclusive line of merchandise that supports our beautification efforts. Therefore, all proceeds from the sale of these items, are reinvested into our community, benefiting all of us. The Merch was introduced at the family fair in the fall of 2023. For spring 2024, we've added new elements including a hummingbird image donated by beautification committee chair Romi Cortier. The gardens Of Hancock Park continue to be our springboard, as we work to beautify our business district. Retails items are available at: Tailwaggers, Romi Cortier Design and some Sunday farmers markets.
