Excerpt from Report of the Board of Metropolitan Park Commissioners: January, 1907Main Street, sometimes known as the old Reading Turnpike, which is the only continuous road from Boston through the entire northerly half of the Metropolitan Parks District. Main Street also contains a line of electric cars from Boston, which, at Reading, makes connection with many other lines of electric cars. The completion of this parkway will add greatly to the accessibility of Middlesex Fells. The pro posed transfer by the United States government of the Charles River frontage of the Watertown Arsenal has been made, and public ownership of the entire frontage of the northerly side of the river from Craigie Bridge and the new dam to Watertown is now assured. Construction of the drive way along the Arsenal frontage has been commenced. A short extension of Fellsway West in such form as to provide that electric cars may reach and pass through the Middlesex Fells without destroying the beauty and safety of Forest Street in Medford has been provided for. A small piece of land has been conveyed to the town of Hyde Park, to provide for a foot bridge and for the abolition of the grade crossing of steam railroads at Fairmount Station in the center of the town. Another piece of land has been conveyed to the town of Watertown, to provide for the re - location of Galen Street and for the extension of Mount Auburn Street as approaches to a new bridge, to replace, upon slightly altered lines, the old Galen Street Bridge across Charles River to Newton. A contribution of toward the cost of the new bridge and roads has also been promised, upon an agreement that the width of this new bridge shall be sufficient to accommo date both park and highway travel. Land has been conveyed to the town of Weston, to facilitate the building of a bridge at East Newton Street. Small pieces of land have been con veyed to the city of Waltham, to facilitate the improvement of its water works and for a sewer station.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
