ᐅ Neighbor’s concrete posts on our property

I would never put a picture of my children on the internet...
If it bothers you, which I can understand, talk to the neighbor, demand the restoration of your property, and implement a different solution.

We also placed L-shaped blocks towards the neighbor, but in a way that the concrete is on our property. I wouldn’t accept it like that. The neighbors need to contain it, and, of course, on their own property. It looks really unsightly.

As my predecessor already mentioned, I would insist that if he needs to intercept, he should definitely do it on his own property. A retaining wall is fine, but he must position it so that it ends exactly at the boundary, and his curbs or L-shaped stones or whatever else accordingly placed just inside the boundary on his property.

The elevation planning in the development area seems to have been handled poorly. Each plot has a different level, and the last one has to deal with the consequences.
There are L-shaped retaining walls that are only 6 cm (2.4 inches) thick. I don’t understand why 10 cm (4 inches) thick ones are used there. Visually, as a boundary where there will probably only be flower beds or lawn later, it doesn’t look good.

You are right, the height planning here is an absolute disaster!

What would my rights be as the affected party? Am I allowed to remove the concrete on my property?

The concrete belongs on its side. It looks obviously awkward when it starts with L-shaped blocks, because then the edging would have to be offset and would no longer form a straight line... let’s see how the landscape gardener plans to solve this, but in any case, they will probably remove the edging again (at least that’s what I would expect).

Apart from that, to also point this out to the original poster, you don’t plant so close to the property line when the neighbor hasn’t even prepared their site yet. It’s hardly possible to work without causing damage in that case.
