Monterey Historical Factoid
Monterey became a thriving fishing community in the early to mid 1900s, exporting millions of pounds of abalone, shrimp, squid, and sardines annually. By the 1940s, Monterey was known as the “Sardine Capital of the World.” Before World War II, Sicilian and Japanese-American fisherman dominated the fishing industry, with the majority of fishing companies on Fisherman’s Wharf owned by Japanese-Americans.
Due to its strategic location, historically, Monterey has been a key military outpost. In 1902, the 1st Squadron of the 9th Cavalry arrived, 425 men who were among the first black soldiers to be stationed in California. Known as the Buffalo Soldiers, they were instrumental in building the Presidio of Monterey. While military needs have changed since the Presidio of Monterey was first established, the presence of the Defense Language Institute at the U.S. Army Garrison Presidio of Monterey, the Naval Postgraduate School and Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center (FNMOC) at Naval Support Activity Monterey, and U.S. Coast Guard Station Monterey, all located within the city limits, continues Monterey’s legacy of military tradition.
Today, Monterey continues to boast a diverse cultural population which has earned it the designation of “Language Capital of the World” with the presence of both the Defense Language Institute and Middlebury Institute for International Studies at Monterey.

We first heard of Black Diamond from receiving fliers in our mailbox. When we finally made the decision to renovate our backyard, we contacted them for a consult and from our very first meeting with Jeremy O, we were convinced that he was the one that was going to bring our vision to life. We had a very rough sketch of what we wanted, and Jeremy was able to incorporate it into a beautiful design... We are very happy with the results and the continued service we receive. We host gatherings in our new backyard often and have received many compliments. We hope to be able to remodel our front yard in the future and plan to use Black Diamond again.

Thank you to Sahar D. and Black Diamond for the flawless work performed at my residence. She was a pleasure to work with from the very beginning all the way until the end. She has a great eye for landscape design. She was polite, respectful, and caring the entire way through. My new landscaping has received countless compliments from the entire neighborhood. It was done perfectly and very cleanly, exactly as I wanted

It's been a month since our project was finished and we're still so happy with the result and are planning several get togethers over the holidays to show it off! No water pooling, leveled pavers, beautiful lighting, quality craftsmanship! Michael Leija, our project manager, and Giovanni the foreman were great and easy to work with. From the initial consult to the finished project, I felt comfortable talking to both of them if and when anything came up. We love looking at our backyard now, and our favorite part is the paver lights!
