Main Entrances Main Entrances Plan
The master plan proposes walls and signs at all major pedestrian and vehicular entries to the park. These thresholds will serve to reinforce the park’s identity within the city and to more explicitly mark the park’s boundaries. East entrances at Memorial Drive, Arnot, and Washington/Westcott are designed in a more traditional language of signage, with large stone walls and pillars and letters inscribed in stone to reference the era of the park’s founding. Entries on the west side of the park take on a more contemporary language to reflect the more modern context of the surrounding neighborhoods on that side.
