Any ideas on what to do with this narrow side yard? About 2.5 feet wide
Pave it. Store broken down motorcycles that you “keep wanting to get to but just don’t have the time or funds to deal with” there. Occasionally pull one out, take a few things off and clean them up. While working on it, have a conversation with every middle aged man that walks by your house because he “used to ride but you know how the wife gets when the first kid comes”. More on reddit.com

Ideas for narrow south side of house?
I see some shade there. A hardy upright Japanese maple would be pretty in a bed (curve it to match the drapey flow of the tree - nothing rigid like a straight line or constricted little curves), add some shade plants, a large landscape rock or 3 grouping, Irish moss here and there, ground bird bath on a rock pedestal. Leave space to see all the plant forms. More on reddit.com

February 18, 2019 - I know you may not want to hear this, but this is going to have to be a landscaped area. I would build a mulch bed and extend all the gutters. When you build it use a few plants like liriope or other plants that don't need much sunlight.

14 Small Front Yard Landscaping Ideas With Huge Curb Appeal | Gardening Know How
May 28, 2025 - Window boxes are the ultimate space-saving small front yard idea – even homes without front yards can usually accommodate one. These vertical containers can be mounted directly below windows, transforming a home’s exterior with vibrant color and lush foliage. As well as adding an appealing focal point to a house’s exterior, window boxes are a clever landscaping trick, as they draw the eye upward, which helps to enhance the perceived size of the front yard.

Transforming a side yard from Blah to Beautiful - Harmony in the Garden
June 11, 2023 - The already claustrophobic feeling of this cramped space will only be intensified by a straight and narrow pathway (I call this the bowling alley effect.) Instead, make the pathway as wide as you can while leaving some room for plantings. And, if possible, include a gentle curve which helps to give the illusion of a wider space. You can see in the above photo that Lisa’s path was widened all the way to the side of the house, eliminating the skinny slice of a garden bed next to the house.

February 5, 2025 - Before you landscape or make other improvements around the furniture, try placing the furniture in different spots. A spot that is shady during the hottest part of the day, but gets morning or afternoon sun is ideal. Once you've found the right space, you can install pavers around your furniture and perhaps give your private patio a garden atmosphere with some pot plants. If space allows, you can even transform the side of your house into an outdoor dining area for the whole family.
