Plan to Convert the Old
Reservoir Site Into a
Boys Park Gener-
ally Endorsed.
A DEMOCRATIC PROJECT
Begun Under Mayor Hoos the
Present Administration
Promised Much and
Did Nothing.
/ DEMOCRATIC PROJECT

The crusade inaugurated by the New
York isworlap for the conversion Of the
old abandoned reservoir Site at Manhat-
tan, Summit and Central avenues into
a playground has aroused new. interest
in an old subject. For years past there
have at intervals been made frequent
efforts to property equip playground
on the site mentioned. In all Jersey
Citys territory there is not solitary
playground. In the Hudson City section
the subject has been discussed time and
again by the Improvement and Business
Mems associations; petitions have been
sent to the AUTHORITIES asking that the
playground be established and equipped
as such, and candidates have promised
time and again to see that such was
done. The old Democratic. Street and
Water Board tried to do something in
the matter, but could not get the neces-
sary appropriation.
The Board of Finance. however, did
appropriate $500 on June 10 to convert
the site into skating park.
A generally playground is what is
generally wanted. Those interested
argue that it could still be converted into
a skating park in the winter. There is
a good. sized lake, known as LINCOLN
Lake, in he southeastern corner Of the
site. This is used BY boys fol. bathing
nsumuaer and by the young folk OF both
sexes as skating rink IN the winter.
Some time ago portion Of the big
site was leveled of for baseball pur-
poses. Barnum's Circus came along and
put the baseball ground practically out
of commission.
1t is conceded by everybody that the
site is an ideal one for playground. It
is enclosed by high stone wall. 1t is
roomy. The location is about the centre
Of the entire section of the Heights from
Bergen to the West Hoboken line.
As the matter stands at present it is
