This picturesque estate on the shores of Lake Ontario was endangered by bluff erosion. Through ingeniously engineered solutions and extensive re-vegetation the property is anticipated to weather another 200+ years.  Scope included a temporary shoreline access road, groin construction, aquatic habitat creation, a 15m deep by 170m long caisson wall concealed under the landscape, stormwater management overflow channels, specialized slope soil installation & hydroseeding, and extensive planting of large caliper shade trees via tree spade.
