GO HEPOET OF THE 



the ways provided for their use, it is proposed to close the 

 central gates on Flushing avenue and Canton street, and 

 lay a straight asphalt walk running directly from the gate 

 on the corner of Flushing avenue- and Canton street to the 

 gate on the corner of Park avenue and Navy street. Also 

 another crossing this from the gate at the corner of Park 

 avenue and Canton street to the gate at the corner of Flushing- 

 avenue and Navy street. Such a plan will leave the present 

 asphalt walk running from the gate in the centre of Park 

 avenue to the point at the centre of the proposed asphalt walks, 

 where they will all intersect. The same plan is proposed for 

 the asphalt walk running from the central gate on the Navy 

 street side. This latter pavement will be a great convenience 

 and accommodation to the children of the public school which 

 is in close proximity to this gate. 



It is recommended that the hunimocky green sward and the 

 asphalt pavement, not indicated in the above proposed plan, be 

 ploughed up, manured, seeded and rolled. Also that when in 

 proper condition certain proportions of it be allotted to the 

 children for use as a playground. Also, that all unsightly and 

 decaying trees be cut down and replaced with such others as 

 will take kindly to the soil. 



It is also recommended that the street on the Park avenue 

 side of the park be nagged with good blue stone and that the 

 nagging on Flushing avenue be repaired wherever needed. 



If sufficient funds be appropriated the Commissioners would 

 recommend the flagging of Navy and Canton streets, where they 

 bound the park. 



It is further suggested that a structure for the use of men 

 be placed on the Park avenue side of the park, near the central 

 gate, that being the point considered the least objectionable 

 and the best suited to the purpose. 



It is proposed to place a small drinking fountain in the 

 centre of the park, at the point where all its walks intersect. 



A shelter house for the park is named in the appropriation 

 for next year. It is a question with the Commissioners 

 whether, with the present police protection, it would be desira-
