STEWARDSHIP Beautification Projects Lift Spirits & Property Values Lake Harvey Project in St. Lucie West City of Port St. Lucie Names 17 Neighborhoods in 2018 Approximately 300 residents joined City staff on February 17, 2018 during the first NICE Day Block Party to learn the new, official names for several Port St. Lucie neighborhoods. A visually-appealing City cultivates community pride and spirit, promotes good behavior, and increases property values. Recently completed beautification and landscaping projects include Port St. Lucie Boulevard landscaping along the south side of the Turnpike Bridge, Cashmere Boulevard Buffer Area, Import Pond, Veterans Memorial Water Quality Treatment Areas, and the Woodland Trails Park Buffer Area. The City deeply appreciates the support of the community groups that have donated their time, money and energy to help with many of these beautiful projects. The Lake Harvey project in St Lucie West was the recipient of much community support and PSL thanks the many citizens who donated to this project including: St. Lucie West Services District, Mrs. Harvey Cutler, Sunset Rotary Club, Lake Forest HOA, and First Services Residential Florida, Inc. Studies have shown that beautification projects help improve property values and reduce littering. Landscaping projects help create the City’s neighborhood-friendly atmosphere while providing park areas perfect for gathering with family and friends.
