Sacramento Historical Factoid
In the early 1800s, John Sutter, a German-born Swiss pioneer, arrived in the Sacramento Valley. In 1839, he founded Nueva Helvetia (New Switzerland) on this land, marking a significant shift in Sacramento's history. By 1840, Sutter had built Sutter's Fort, a fortified trading post that included a variety of facilities such as a kitchen, workshops for carpenters and blacksmiths, a general store, a jail, and accommodations for new settlers, primarily Swiss immigrants. Sutter's establishment helped Sacramento develop into a thriving agricultural hub and a haven for American pioneers until the Gold Rush of 1849 dramatically altered its trajectory. The gold rush brought a flood of miners and fortune seekers who ultimately overran and dismantled the fort, leading Sutter to leave in 1850. Today, Sutter's Fort has been partially rebuilt and preserved as a California State Park, serving as a historical landmark. The California Gold Rush stands as a pivotal chapter in American history, especially during the first half of the 19th century. Initiated by the discovery of gold nuggets in the Sacramento Valley in early 1848, this period profoundly transformed the course of Sacramento County's history. Sacramento was named the permanent state capital all the way back in 1879. This comes as no surprise considering the history of Sacramento is as old as California itself.
What Sacramento homeowners are saying.
“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.”
Cherylle M.Sacramento, CA“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!”
Jackie T.Sacramento, CA“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.”
