Drake's Lawn and Landscape

About Drake's Lawn and Landscape

The older streets near 75th and Nall grew their trees tall enough that by evening, when the light goes low and orange through bare branches, the ground underneath goes dim early — which is often when Drake's Lawn and Landscape is still out, watching a storm that's supposed to turn to ice after dark. That kind of evening work takes patience, parked at the curb to see which way the temperature breaks before committing the plow to a pass. These are older, tree-shaded blocks, ranch homes and split-levels under decades-old canopy, the kind of street where everyone still knows whose driveway is whose. When the ice does come, a clean pass at dusk instead of midnight is the difference between a walkway anyone can use in the morning and one nobody will risk. It's quiet work, done one familiar block at a time until the whole stretch is dark pavement again.
