PARK AND PLAYGROUND SYSTEM 



6. The First Burial-ground 



A tract of about an acre and a half constitutes a dis- 

 used burial-ground opposite the Bulkeley School. 

 For the present nothing needs to be done with it 

 except the planting of some good shade-trees at suit- 

 able places. In the years to come it might be brought 

 into use as a small open place in much the same way 

 that old burial-grounds in London, England, are now 

 used. 



7. Historical Museum Triangle 



The Triangle on Bank Street between Tilley and 

 Brewer Streets, though small, is a very valuable public 

 space. It affords an open foreground to the fine old 

 Colonial building now used as an Historical Museum. 



B. SCHOOL GROUNDS 



8. The Harbor School 



No large use can be made of the grounds for play un- 

 less they are developed and equipped with apparatus. 

 Some planting could be done with advantage. A valu- 

 able addition has recently been made to the north along 

 Montauk Avenue. The grounds should be still further 

 extended, so as to connect with the proposed Harbor 

 School Park. 



9. Nameaug School 



The grounds here are too small for any extensive use. 

 They would be improved by planting and made some- 

 what more useful by installing simple apparatus. The 

 building seems to be unfavorably situated for making 

 the best use of the ground. It might be worth while
