A friend bought a house in South Philly with a pretty good size back yard. He tore up the concrete slab and replaced it with brick and built-in planters for trees and shrubs. His neighbor thought he was insane, as if replacing a concrete slab with a small landscaped garden would decrese the entire neighborhood's property value.
