Posted on Mar 24th, 2012 Comments (0)
 
Today is one of those woulda -- coulda -- shoulda type days.  It's grey.  It's rainy.  It's a great time to just stay home and get things done.  While here, we would like to as you a question -- what's missing from Landsdowne?  What do you not have -- that we should?  Be creative.  Be candid.  Let us know your ideas.  This will help us in our future planning.

Your Input -- Please
Posted on Mar 19th, 2012 Comments (0)
 
We are always trying to find ways to keep Landsdowne looking good and current.  A question for you --
 
If you could change one thing about Landsdowne to give it a more up to date look to neighborhood visitors  or prospective buyers, what would it be?
 
Let your creativity flow.  This could be an architectural modification to your home -- an expanded color palette -- a community enhancment -- something that needs fixing -- something to give more curb appeal.  Inquiring minds want to know.
 
Please submit your comments below, or send thoughts to communications@landsdowne.org or any BOD member.
 
Thank You.
