What to do with a concrete slab?
Posted on 3/29/14 at 4:07 pm
Posted on 3/29/14 at 4:07 pm
My backyard has a 10x15 concrete slab that is just hanging out and not attached to my slab. As a matter of fact, It is approximately 25 feet from the house.
My question to the OB. What would you do with this slab. I live in the city. I have about a 1/4 acre backyard. I have a 2 year old who already has a treehouse/swing/slide in another part of the yard. I already have a small shop in the back of my yard.
My thoughts are to
A. Build a simple pavillion and add a picnic table w/ grill.
B. Build a fire pit with benches.
C. Remove the slab and reclaim a piece of my yard.
What would you do?
Ps. The entire yard will have privacy fencing within the next three weeks. So please disregard the crappy yard that is attached to mine.

build a outdoor fireplace on one end of it, you could cover the rest or leave it uncovered, either way its a nice place to sit with friends especially when its cool outside. but then again who dosent like a outdoor fire any time of the year?

It's in a shaded area, so a fireplace/pavillion/table area could definitely work. It looks a tad small, though. Good luck.

Pergola/crawfish boiling/fish frying patio. Level it up and mortar some brick pavers to it.

Already thought of and passed on. Of all the outdoor/sports that my family does, basketball is not something that we do. Maybe when the girl gets older if she wants we will do that.

I would put outdoor kitchen with fireplace

Build brick ledge around edge with built in brick fire pit in the middle. Cover the concrete on the inside with gravel so you can't see the exposed concrete
