This page illustrates the plans drafted by Christiane Torres to bring native trees, flowers and bushes to the 400 block of Spruce Alley. The West Chester Green Team seeks to house birds, protect pollinators, counteract heat and please passersby as well as upgrade the appearances of garages, fences, and driveways.
