I Avenue Estate
This portfolio holds 11 verified Ecosystem Landscaping & Design properties, ten Coronado residences plus Banc of California. Work spans bayfront beds on Ocean Blvd, estate blocks on 1st St, and tight period lots on B Ave, C Ave, and J Ave, all drawn and planted by Samuel Fortes.
Eleven verified properties: 100 I Ave, 409 1st St, 420 1st St, 545 Ocean Blvd, 609 1st St, 641 Balboa Ave, 653 B Ave, 667 Ocean Blvd, 745 J Ave, 753 C Ave, and Banc of California. The Ocean Blvd and 1st St beds take full afternoon sun off the bay and salt on every leaf by evening. The B Ave, C Ave, and J Ave lots run tight side yards with mature trees and period-correct hedging expectations. CSLB License #1152146, bonded and insured.
This portfolio shows real Coronado landscape projects built by Ecosystem Landscaping & Design, including bayfront beds on Ocean Blvd, estate lots on 1st St, and older cottage yards on B Ave, C Ave, and J Ave. Samuel Fortes drew, planted, and still prunes each one.
Eleven verified properties: 100 I Ave, 409 1st St, 420 1st St, 545 Ocean Blvd, 609 1st St, 641 Balboa Ave, 653 B Ave, 667 Ocean Blvd, 745 J Ave, 753 C Ave, and Banc of California. Ten residential, one commercial. The bayfront lots on Ocean Blvd take full afternoon sun off the water and salt sits on every leaf by evening, so the palette and the irrigation both get picked for that. The older lots off B Ave and C Ave have side yards narrow enough that a wheelbarrow is the only way material reaches the back.
Our Coronado portfolio covers hand-tended jobs across the island, from bayfront beds on Ocean Blvd and 1st St to tight period lots on B Ave, C Ave, and J Ave. We design, build, and maintain each one, choosing the plant palette and irrigation for salt air and afternoon sun off the bay before a quote goes out.
We have finished and photographed jobs at 100 I Ave, 409 and 420 1st St, 545 and 667 Ocean Blvd, 609 1st St, 641 Balboa Ave, 653 B Ave, 745 J Ave, and 753 C Ave, plus commercial work for Banc of California. Every one of those lots sits inside Coronado's salt-air zone.
Our Coronado portfolio includes eleven verified properties across Ocean Boulevard, 1st Street, B Avenue, C Avenue, J Avenue, and Balboa Avenue, plus the Banc of California commercial site. Most are full design-build jobs on lots between 4,000 and 12,000 square feet. Sam Fortes draws every plan and walks every install.
Eleven Coronado addresses sit on this page. Over a decade of hand-tended work between Ocean Boulevard and J Avenue. Lot sizes run 4,000 to 12,000 square feet. Bayfront full afternoon sun on 1st Street. Period hedges on B Avenue. Slope drainage on the Banc of California commercial site. Older lots on C Avenue and J Avenue with 34-inch side yards we hand-carried pavers down.
