It’s Our Annual Algae Removal Time

Each year nature spreads a green carpet of algae over the canals. Mariposa Landscaping, our wonderful maintenance company removes it. The water level is lowered. Workers with long racks scrape the algae to the sides. The algae is then lifted into wheelbarrows on the sidewalks. It is collected at each footbridge and then taken to their maintenance yard on Grand Canal by N. Venice Blvd. to be hauled away … courtesy of the Venice Canals Informative.
