I have a property on a corner lot which has a perimeter on two street-facing sides of more than 300 feet. The lawns on these two sides slope down to sidewalks on a steep enough angle that it makes lawn mowing and erosion a problem.
I would like to build a small retaining wall, and I am looking for suggestions on how to keep the cost reasonable. One contractor gave me a price of $40K for a 3 foot wall using natural field stone. I'm hoping I can get something attractive for less. I don't particularly like the look of manufactures blocks. I have seen some decorative poured concrete which looks pretty good driving by at 25 mph.
Any ideas/suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks....
