Hazy, hot and humid - that's the official weather forecast for the month of July here in Western Mass. We thought we'd show you a bit of what is going on this week at Jacob's Edge, beginning with the installation of our curb cuts and the extension of our driveway in preparation for Phase II of construction. This photo is looking directly toward the Jacob's Brook Conservation Area which borders our community.
We felt bad for the guys working in 90-plus degree heat all day while visitors touring our Model Home were cooling off in the comfortable air conditioning. They're obviously used to these kinds of conditions, but it can't be fun.
On the other hand, the wet weather has been kind to our landscaping which is holding up very well and needing less personal attention. Residents of Jacob's Edge will enjoy the cost-effective sprinkler system. Our landscape design provides routine irrigation with the needed water being pumped from a private well rather than by consuming city water. Residents need not worry about high water bills and can enjoy green grass and flowering plants all summer long. It is one more way that living at Jacob's Edge conserves resources and makes it easier on everyone's pocketbook.
