Why Berkeley needs this specifically
Berkeley’s brick-veneer cottages and bungalows near two lake parks are well suited to a perimeter soil barrier given the nearby ground moisture.
Mixed brick-veneer-cottage and wood-frame-bungalow construction from this era, plus proximity to two lake parks, brings a ground-moisture consideration similar to Sloan’s Lake, though on a smaller scale.
