Palmyra Temple Case Study

PropertyCare partnered with a high-traffic religious campus in Western New York to rebuild and upgrade failing parking lot landscape islands—improving curb appeal, safety, and long-term performance with new curbing, irrigation, grading, plantings, and sod.

A sunny suburban park with lush green trees, a white building partially obscured by foliage, a pathway, and well-maintained grass and bushes.

Client Overview

The client is a religious institution campus serving a busy community facility with consistent visitor traffic and high expectations for cleanliness, detail, presentation, and safety year-round.

The Goal: a clean, durable, low-maintenance solution that aligned with the property’s high standards while improving long-term usability.

The Challenge

A parking lot with a landscaped flower bed featuring colorful mums and ornamental grasses, surrounded by trees with fall foliage and a clear blue sky.

The existing parking lot islands were underdeveloped or failing, which created both appearance and functional issues, including:

  • Poor curb appeal for a highly visible property

  • Undefined or outdated planting areas

  • A struggling irrigation system made plant health difficult to maintain

  • Aging or incomplete concrete curbing is impacting function and aesthetics

  • Modern house with outdoor pool, surrounded by lounge chairs, trees, bushes, and hilly landscape in the background.

    The Atlas Project

  • Close-up of shallow water on a sandy beach, showing ripples and light reflections creating a pattern on the sand underneath.

    The Echo Project

  • Modern house with outdoor patio, lounge chairs by a swimming pool, desert landscaping, trees, and a lawn, during daytime.

    The Brightline Project

  • A field of white daisies with yellow centers, some flowers are in bloom while others are budding, with a blurred background during sunset or golden hour.

Project Review

  • PropertyCare reconstructed parking lot landscape islands, installed new curbing and paver patios, corrected grading and drainage, added commercial irrigation, and installed plantings and sod for a clean, durable finish.

  • Well-built islands improve curb appeal, define traffic areas, support safety and site organization, and reduce long-term maintenance when grading, curbing, and irrigation are installed correctly.

  • Work was phased to maintain access, with close coordination and proactive communication so the site could stay functional during ongoing visitor traffic.

PropertyCare stood out by managing a complex, multi-trade scope with clarity and care:

  • Single point of contact from planning through completion

  • Strong coordination across concrete, irrigation, and landscaping

  • Proactive communication and clear expectations

  • Detail-driven construction and finish work

  • Capability to deliver multi-scope projects efficiently
