Hardscaping That Fits an Established Lot

Many properties near Upper Arlington already have mature trees, defined lawns, and homes with a clear architectural style.

Patios, stone pathways, and walkways are designed to connect the house to the yard without overwhelming either, and each is built on a compacted base with drainage planned in. Where a walkway meets a change in grade, stone retaining and border walls keep the transition clean.

Pergolas and Pavilions Scaled to the House

A pergola frames a patio and softens the afternoon sun, and a pavilion adds a covered spot for dining or lounging.

Both are scaled to the house so they read as part of the property rather than an addition to it.

About Upper Arlington, OH

Upper Arlington is a city in Franklin County, covering about 9.8 square miles with roughly 36,800 residents and the 43212, 43220, and 43221 ZIP codes.

Brothers King and Ben Thompson bought the original 840 acres in 1913 and developed them as the Country Club District, following a Garden City-inspired plan by landscape architect William Pitkin Jr. The Scioto River forms the city’s western border, with Marble Cliff and Grandview Heights to the south.

The Upper Arlington Historic District, known as Old Arlington or South of Lane, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. Northam Park hosts the Labor Day Arts Festival, and the Mallway was the first business district. Students attend the Upper Arlington City School District. Large lawns and generous setbacks south of Lane Avenue, and post-war ranch neighborhoods to the north, both call for landscapes planned around the existing lot.
