Where Healing Begins: Grand Ledge Garden Wall in Georgia
Project Details
Project Name: No Longer Bound Garden Manufacturer: Piedmont Precast Landscape Designers: Angelique Robb, SYNKD + Marina Shishkin, Mon Plaisir Gardens Contractors: Maxwell Landscape Construction, Tributary Landscape Group Owner: No Longer Bound Location: Cumming, Georgia Year Built: 2025
THE CHALLENGE:
Build a Retaining Wall to Launch a Transformative Garden Project
Creating a safe, peaceful outdoor space was the priority for phase one of a therapeutic prayer garden at Cumming, Georgia-headquartered organization No Longer Bound, known for life-changing addiction recovery programs. That meant constructing a reliable retaining wall on a steep slope to anchor the space. The project’s landscape contractor, Maxwell Landscape Construction, was tasked with installing Rosetta’s Grand Ledge wall system for the first time to bring this anxiety-free outdoor sanctuary to life.

THE SOLUTION:
Grand Ledge Garden Wall Installed in One Day
Take it Outside, a company focused on building outdoor spaces where people can de-stress, partnered with Piedmont Precast and Maxwell’s Landscape Construction to bring phase one of the garden to life. Together, they delivered:
- 240 sq ft (22.3 sq m) of Grand Ledge retaining wall installed in under 8 hours
- Streamlined installation completed by a 3-person crew, thanks to Rosetta Hardscape’s machine-set block efficiencies and simplified installation instructions
- A 5 ft (1.5 m) gravity retaining wall with no geogrid reinforcement required The necessary infrastructure to support a new outdoor space for this commercial landscaping project
With Rosetta’s Grand Ledge retaining wall system, the project team delivered a fast, efficient solution that didn’t sacrifice beauty or structural integrity. A strong, natural-stone-like retaining wall now grounds phase one of the prayer garden, creating the foundation for a beautifully landscaped space in future phases, with the entire project expected to be completed in early fall of 2025.
