This project is for landscape median restoration along Central Avenue from Gulf Shore Boulevard to 6th Street.  The existing median vegetation has been damaged by storms and hurricanes, and much of the materials have outgrown their planting space.  In addition, there are irrigation issues that contribute to the decline of mature plantings. This project does involve the complete demolition of the existing landscaping and irrigation; that includes removing the trees and palms, ground cover, irrigation, and about 12 inches of soil.  There are 2 large Royal Poinciana trees in the 300 block of the medians that remain and will be redesigned around. This project includes new ornamental shrubs, groundcovers and adds to the canopy capacity by replanting trees and palms.
