Notes on the Plan of Franklin Park and Related Matters (Classic Reprint) by PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Notes on the Plan of Franklin Park and Related Matters The taking of land having been completed, instructions were given for the preparation of a plan in general accordance with the views which had determined the locality and the limits of the proposed park. In December, 1884, a series of propositions in regard to the principal features of the plan were submitted and approved by the Board. In the spring of 1885 a preliminary drawing of the plan was submitted, and, to facilitate discussion, the lines of it were fully staked on the ground and followed out by the Commissioners. After debate this study, with some immaterial variations, was approved as the basis of the final plan. Later, a change in the membership and a re-organization of the Board having occurred, the preliminary plan was reviewed and found acceptable. Still later the Commissioners, to be satisfied as to various conditions of park economy, visited and made a comparative examination of several large parks in use. January 30, 1886, at a meeting of the Commissioners held at the office of the Landscape Architect on the park site, the Mayor being present, the finished general plan was presented and considered. February 10, the Commissioners voted as follows: - (1) That the plan prepared by the Landscape Architect, now before the Board, is adopted as the Plan of Franklin Park. (2) That the Landscape Architect is requested to prepare a statement for publication explanatory of the plan, and setting forth the views of the undertaking that he has presented to the Board.
