ANNUAL REPORT
PARK DEPARTMENT
YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1929.
Boston, December 31, 1929.
Hon, Malcolm E. Nichols,
Mayor of Boston.
Dear Sir, — In accordance with section 15 of chapter
185, Acts of 1875, the Park Commission herewith sub-
mits its annaar.repQrc for .t:h,6 ye,ai^ 1929, and in so
doing desires to ^ call special' 'attention. to the detailed
schedule of expenditures Cor ''the year, which will be
found appended. '-- > .-
These facts, and figures- 'Sp,eak, for ^themselves, show-
ing as they do the expenditure of a >.a;'[';Q sum of money
and an extensive list of improvements made at all the
public reservations under our control, all of which
became necessary in order that they would be in the
best possible condition during the year 1930 (the Ter-
centenary Year) when the City of Boston is to be host
to a multitude of visitors who will want to visit this
city and see the many historical shrines connected with
the early history of the settlement of this colony. As
a great number of these shrines are located in reserva-
tions attached to this department, the demands upon
them will be many and varied, necessitating especial
2 City Document No. 19.
attention in order that their appearance may be that
of the highest excellence.
I wish most earnestly to express heartfelt thanks to
my assistants and the employees of this department for
their intelhgent cooperation and their faithful adher-
ence to duty in carrying out the preformulated plans of
the department.
The following work described more or less in detail
was performed during the year:
Boston Common.
Tree surgery was continued in order to insure the
safety of the great mass of people who will pass under
the branches of the very old trees, many of whose
branches were in a state of decay. The grounds, where
necessary, were graded by resodding or loaming, and
the entire Common was fertilized in order to encourage
the strong durable growth of grass necessary to with-
stand the hard usage it will receive next year.
The underground sanitary buildings received neces-
sary repairs, also the women's cottage opposite West
street and the office building at the site of the old Deer
Park.
A new work shop and tractor shed building was
erected; additional concrete and asphalt paved walks
were constructed, after which seats along these walks
were rearranged and the loamed area along their edges
were regraded with loam and grassed. Necessary
repairs were made to the wire fence surrounding the base-
ball field. The public ad dres'^ systepi was' overhauled
and necessary repairs ahd improverriehts made to it.
The Christmas tree, wit'ii- its electrical display, erected
adjoining the Parkmari Bandstand, was an enchanting
rendezvous duri^pgthfelrolMe^; periods of C-'hristmas and
New Year's. ■' . '■ ^' '■ "-•>■'•-'■ ; ■ ■ - ' -
The Public Garden.
Ranking second in importance to the Common in the
opinion of Bostonians, but surpassing the more historic
spot from the point of view of its appeal for outside
visitors, is the Public Garden. Of this finely adorned
little park, the care taken of it and its appearance in the
past year during the various floral and other type of
displays made upon it, I need scarcely add one word to
the opinions of the press and public who are delighted
with the displays, and freely express their appreciation
of it.
Park Department.
Commonwealth Avenue.
In order to make this avenue safe as well as to facili-
tate vehicular travel thereon, it was made a through-
way from Arlington street to Governor square.
The remaining wood block pavement on the northerly
drive of this parkway, between Sherborn and Chilmark
streets, was removed, and a Warrenite pavement
substituted.
The abutment wall of Cottage Farm Bridge on the
southeast end was repaired, and the concrete sidewalk
adjoining was rebuilt.
Extensive repairs were made to granolithic sidewalk
along this avenue.
The roadway connection across the street car reserva-
tion at South street was regraded and repaved in order
to make it safer for vehicular travel.
The trees along the entire length of this avenue were
pruned, the tree pits cultivated, and all catch-basins
and drainage system cleaned and freed of debris.
The Back Bay Fens.
Additional ''granite composite" bleacher seats were
erected and the grounds adjoining regraded, loamed and
planted. In order that the grounds at the school boys'
stadium might dry out more quickly in the spring time,
additional drainage was provided. The portion of the
Fens Pond waterway in the vicinity of the footbridges
was dredged to free it of debris. Avenue Louis Pasteur
was resurfaced with a Warrenite pavement and grano-
lithic sidewalks installed on the Fenway from Avenue
Louis Pasteur to Brookline avenue. Extensive repairs
were made to granolithic walks on Boylston street,
Audubon road and at Charlesgate East. The realign-
ment of curb corners at the junction of The Fenway
and Avenue Louis Pasteur necessitated the regrading of
the planting or tree space and raising of the grade of the
walk adjoining it from Avenue Louis Pasteur to the
Simmons College Building. The Richardson Bridge
carrying Boylston street over the Fens waterway was
repaired and the masonry work repointed. Extensive
repairs were made to the sanitar}^ building. During
the winter the school boys' playground was flooded for
skating and a hockey rink erected on it.
Owners of property fronting on Boylston street en-
trance to the Back Bay Fens petitioned the Board of
4 City Document No. 19.
Zoning Adjustment to change the zoning requirements
in this location from R-65 to an R-80. This Board,
after giving this matter extensive study, notified the
Zoning Adjustment Board that it had no objections to
the proposed change being made.
RiVERWAY.
To provide smooth paved walks from Boston Common
to Franklin Park a concrete walk was constructed along
the southerly boundary of this parkway from Brookline
avenue near the Fens to Huntington avenue.
The Audubon Road Bridge over the Brookline branch
of the Boston & Albany Railroad was replanked.
Olmsted Park.
Concrete walks were installed along the southerly
boundary of Jamaicaway, from Huntington avenue to
Prince street.
Owing to the washing away of the soil along the
northerly banks of Jamaica Pond, it became necessary
to reshape the banks and construct a riprap shore line.
After this work was completed, the entire walk sur-
rounding Jamaica Pond was reshaped, resurfaced with
cracked stone, rolled to a smooth surface and dressed
with stone screenings.
The outlet culvert from Jamaica Pond to Ward's
Pond, along with the gate chamber, was cleaned and
freed so as to function properly. Later, new control
gate chambers with gates to control the height of water
in Jamaica Pond were installed.
A conduit for electric lighting sj^stem to the refresh-
ment cottage, at boat landing, Jamaica Pond, was
installed.
The playground area near Willow Pond was regraded
and the baseball diamond loamed and reshaped.
A portion of the. smooth paved roadway on the
Jamaicaway, where it was badly cracked, was removed
and repaved; the portions only slightly cracked were
thoroughly cleaned and a skim coat of bitumin and fine
cement applied.
Arnold Arboretum.
Permission was accorded the Public Works Depart-
ment, Sewer Division, to install through the South
street entrance and Walter street entrance roads a 24-

boundary from Pond to Centre streets, and on the
westerly boundary along the Arnold Arboretum wall
from near Weld Park to South street.
The smooth paved roadway opposite the Centre
street entrance to the Administration Building in the
Arnold Arboretum was roughened in order to provide a
safer footing for animals using the Bridle Path.

Considerable work was performed on the golf links, a
bold rocky knoll near the eighteenth hole was removed,
the ground regraded and new sods placed thereat;
several locations which remained wet until late in the
spring were underdrained.
Extensive alterations and repairs were made to the
Refectory Building.
Many improvements were made at the Zoological
Garden, amongst which were the erection of new outside
flying cages at the Bird House, the construction of a
concrete tank along with the grading and resurfacing
with hot asphalt and stone screenings the yard at
Elephant House. A new system of plumbing was in-
stalled at the Bird House. Wire fences and gates were
erected at the animal corrals.
The group of statuary, originally located on the top
of the Boston Post Office, was removed to Franklin
Park where it will be repaired and later set upon ped-
estals in the Zoological Garden.
A new refreshment booth located near the Bears Den
was removed to a new location.
A number of settees, totaling one hundred and
twenty feet in length, was built in place at the Rose
Garden.
The toboggan flooding system, which of late years
gave considerable trouble and annoyance, was cleaned
out and repaired preparatory to its use during the

tration building in accordance with plans of William D.
Austin, architect, was commenced and is practically
completed. A platform and structure to house and
12 City Document No. 19.
protect the flood light meter was erected. A contract
for filling, grading and surfacing an additional area
was awarded to Coleman Brothers, Inc. To define the
extreme limits of safety for landing on the flying field,
a system of electric boundary lights was installed.

A wire boundary fence was erected.
During the year, land for hangar locations was
leased for use in commercial aviation to the Colonial
Air Transport, Inc., the Skyways, Inc., the East
Coast Aircraft Sales Company, the Boston Airport
Corporation ; the latter lease was later transferred to the
Curtiss Flying Service.
To the United States Lighthouse Service, one and
eighty-six hundredths acres of land were leased for a
radio beacon site, and the United States Army leased
land for hangars.
In view of the fact that the construction and manage-
ment of a well-equipped airport requires the execution
of a vast number of details, it was deemed advisable to
appoint an executive bearing the title ''Superintendent
of Airport," who should devote his entire time to the
dualistic responsibility, first of supervising the develop-
ment of the plans of construction, and subsequently^ of
regulating the use of the airport as soon as portions of it
should be completed.
On March 1, 1929, this Board appointed Captain L.
Edson to that position, w^ith a salary of 13,500 a year,
which was later increased to $5,000 a year.
Recommendations.
In view of the number of public ceremonies that will
take place at the proposed Tribune Building on Boston
Common, 3,750 linear feet of movable wooden benches
should be provided for the use of the public ; additional
walks on this reservation should be newly surfaced.
The statuary groups moved last year from the old
Boston Post Office Building should be erected upon
suitable pedestals in the Zoological Garden.
New buildings are necessary at the following locations :
Field houses at Almont Street Playground, Mattapan;
Park Department. 13
Columbus Park, South Boston; John A. Doherty Play-
ground at Fields Corner, Dorchester; Jefferson Play-
ground, Roxbury, and at Readville Playground. A new
brick garage is needed at Franklin Park, as well as an
addition to the greenhouses. The removal of the old
wooden bath house at the Strandway Bathing Beach,
opposite L street in South Boston, and the erection of a
more modern structure at the same site is a necessity.
A new bath house having been erected on the beach at
World War Memorial Park, the old structure should be
removed. Wooden shelters for the use of children
should be erected at Wilham F. Smith Playground,
Brighton; Christopher Lee Playground, South Boston,
and at Franklin Field, Dorchester.
Wire fences should be erected at the William J.
Barry Playground, Charlestown; on the wall at the
stadium in Columbus Park; at the Mission Hill Play-
ground, Roxbury; at the newly acquired playground
on Moreland street, Roxbury; at the John W. Murphy
Playground in Jamaica Plain, also at Mount Hope
Cemetery.
Concrete bleachers should be erected at the Columbus
Park Stadium. Concrete walks should be constructed
at Fort Hill square, Boston proper; Horatio Harris
Park, Dorchester; also at the Arborway in Jamaica
Plain, and at Highland Park, Roxbury. Bituminous
pavement should be laid on the Arborway easterly road-
way, from Pond street to Centre street; in the Back
Bay Fens on Charlesgate East and Charlesgate West,
near Back street, and on Commonwealth avenue, side
drive, near Warren street. Owing to the removal of
street car tracks on Commonwealth avenue, near Lake
street, this portion of this avenue should be widened,
and paved with bituminous pavement, similar to the
remaining portion of that avenue.
jMuddy river, flowing as it does through the very
heart of the main chain of parkways, has for many
years been an offence to the eye, if not a menace to
health, owing to the accumulation of decajdng materials
therein. As the authorities of the town of Brookline
and the City of Boston have happily agreed upon a
solution to this problem, the dredging of this channel
from Leverett pond to opposite St. Mary's street should
be authorized.
A rock garden should be constructed in Franklin Park.
The following improvements should l)e made at the
14 City Document No. 19.
Boston Airport : Installation of additional surface water
drains, the erection of additional wire and iron fences;
the removal of old hangar building from center of flying
field; the surfacing of roadways and parking areas.
Planting beds should be prepared and shrubs planted
therein; a timber seaplane ramp should be constructed;
an illuminated identification roof sign is needed, as well
as funds provided to fill additional areas. The con-
crete cistern at the Aquarium should be waterproofed.
The play area surface of the Prince Street Playground
in the North End should be resurfaced. The Head
House at Marine Park needs repairing and painting.
Repairs are needed to the covered pier and public
sanitary at Castle Island. Additional repairs are found
necessary at the Cabot Street Bathhouse, Roxbury.
The American Legion Playground in East Boston
should be graded and loamed, and at Fairview Cemetery,
Hyde Park, additional single grave sections should be
developed.
Respectfully submitted,
William P. Long,
Chairman.
