"With summer coming to a close, it seemed like a good
time to let you know how much we have savored our new
landscape. You took a tiny dust bowl and transformed it into a
lush, meandering garden."
J. Cohen
"We wanted to
take this opportunity to let you know that it was a pleasure
working with you on the project. We appreciate the way that
you incorporated all of the family members into the design
process, all the while maintaining an aesthetic consistency
for the garden. The garden is at once playful and graceful as
well as delicate, and we love it!"

"Keith Davitt was first hired by my co-op to design and
construct the garden area in the front of our building.
Because of the spectacular results, I knew I wanted to have
him do the same for my private garden.
Keith spent a
great deal of time understanding how I utilize the garden
based upon my lifestyle. Living in an urban area, I wanted a
space that was tranquil where I could entertain small,
intimate groups. Keith translated that into a perfect design
that is a true reflection of me.
This project required
extensive construction including brick and stone planters,
cedar fencing, lattice and arches and a water garden. The
quality of the work is superb with great care given to every
detail.
It was a great pleasure working with Keith. I
think I was very fortunate in finding him and glad he agreed
to take on my project. Aside from the beauty, I think I most
enjoy hearing my friends gasp when they see the garden for the
first time. I truly thank Keith for creating such a wonderful
'retreat'."

"Dear Keith,
It has been a real pleasure working
with you on our gardens. You have always been accessible and
reliable. Most importantly, you have an incredible passion for
your work and it shows in everything you do...your design,
construction, planting and follow through.
You took the
time to translate our general ideas into very specific and
detailed plans that began to bring our garden alive. You made
suggestions for improvements throughout the entire process -
never settling until the outcome was perfect!
We loved
our backyard garden so much, we asked you to do the front
garden too. We could not be happier with both!
Thanks
to you and your very professional crew!"

"The beauty, strength and grace of your work is still
in our eyes and mind. Its import is such that we will never be
able to look around us at so many 'indifferent' landscapes
without comparing."

"Working with Keith was a real pleasure. And the
resulting garden was a makeover worthy of a television show! A
once dilapidated lot has been transformed into a lush urban
oasis. I'm from the South but live in Brooklyn, and was
thrilled to see that some of my favorite plants, flowers, and
trees were suitable for my garden and that Keith chose them
for me. He even chose one that has my name! My garden is my
favorite place in the house!"

"Apart from
all your other talents, what I most appreciate about you is
that you listen and respond. You don't force your ideas,
rather you helped us develop ours while remaining true to your
highly developed aesthetic. We are very proud of your work,
and we love our garden."
