Fairview Cemetery

This project revolves around what those in east Fayetteville have long known as the ‘Cemetery Pond’. The design includes the addition of a columbarium within a peninsula in the lake and associated walkways to the nearby mausoleum. Also incorporated is a ‘Spreading Garden’ where the ashes of a loved one can be returned to the soil. We designed a stone stream that acts as an interesting garden feature but also acts as a biofilter for the lake. We designed a native stacked stone edge to line the lake and battle the erosion of the lake’s wave action.
