Bridgeport keeps its yards close — narrow dooryards behind low stone walls, hedges leaning out over the sidewalk, streets that tilt downhill toward the harbor and the wide salt light coming off the Sound. Chad Landscapes, Inc tends those lots through the green months, mowing and trimming and edging until a lawn looks measured rather than merely cut, and hauling off the leaf drift that piles against the fences each fall. When January comes up the Pequonnock valley and a driveway fills in overnight, the plow work begins in the dark, and by the time the first commuters stir there is a clean lane of black pavement steaming in all that white. It is honest, physical satisfaction: a stripe running true to the curb in July, a walkway squared off to bare stone in February. The work runs across Bridgeport and the towns beside it, one yard at a time.
