REPORT OF THE 



SLEIGHING SCENE — CONEY ISLAND ENTRANCE PROSPECT PARK. 



around the outer side of the Park, where there was very little 

 pedestrianism, and this served to relieve the drives in the Park. 

 The walks thus utilized are exceedingly attractive for the pur- 

 pose, being shaded by fine trees all the way to the Eastern Park- 

 way, where, with the co-operation of the City Works Depart- 

 ment, Flatbush avenue was paved with asphalt. This enabled 

 cyclists to cross the car tracks without danger, and to reach the 

 Eastern Parkway path with ease. 



THE LINCOLN MONUMENT. 



The changing of the Lincoln Monument from the Park Plaza 

 to the flower garden at the edge of the lake, was commended 

 very highly by the veterans upon the occasion of the Memorial 

 Day services. They found the new location much better suited 

 to their purpose. 



The greenhouses have been enlarged and many new attrac- 

 tions added. The various floral exhibitions during the year have 

 been largely attended, and the flowers greatly admired.
