plans drawn to widen the entrance, which will add greatly to its 
usefulness and to its ornamental effect. This matter has been 
called to my attention a number of times and complaints made 
because of the narrowness of the 
entrance, and I believe we can 
spend money in a no more useful 
way than by placing- this driveway 
at a width sufficient to make of it 
a more accessible approach. 
The band-stand and refreshment 
parlor were both repaired and 
painted in colors to conform to the 
surroundings, which has added 
very materially to the general ap- 
pearance of that locality. 
There have been three new walks 
placed in the park, and the walk 
leading from Walnut Hills to the 
Art Museum has been reclaimed 
and surfaced with stone and cin- 
ders, and is now used more than 
any other walk within the park, as 
its location gives a divergence of 
scenery to those who want to take 
but a short walk within the con- 
fines of the park. 
There has been placed four hundred feet of sewer-pipe in Eden 
Park, including a branch beginning at the summit of the hill near 
the water-tower and leading down over the slopes, connecting 
up at the base with the Fulton-avenue sewer, thereby draining 
all the water from this point in the park which at times 
had inundated the yards and homes of adjacent property-owners. 
This is a feature which will, of necessity, have to be carried out
