NEW LONDON'S STREET WIDENING WORK

zero. Not much room for park were the whole plot utilized. It is not very much larger than is that Johnston parklet on the Parade that is soon to be removed. The local paper is actually inviting sug- gestions for names for that proposed park and the replies are numerous and most of them are made in seriousness. There is an old buttonwood in the triangle that originally stood in the street and was no part of the property for which the city paid fancy price. It is semi officially stated that the old tree will be preserved. If that is done there will be practically no widening of Reed street just where it is needed most.
 It might be good judgment for the park commissioners to get that little parklet bug out of their bonnet, especially insofar as it relates to the traffic improvements in the Old Ramrod district (Say, that would be an appropriate name for the proposed parklet. Any oid-time down towner can tell of it's significance.
 When the New Londoner of 10 was a boy the two houses that have been razed on that triangular plot were very old, so old that the eyer-present oldest inhabitant can truthfully say: The houses were there when 1 was a kid" They were old landmarks, older than the buttonwood tree, especially the story and half house that stood on the corner of Bank and Howard. or rather the continuation of Howard. There may be few, very few.

New London, July 23.--It was generally supposed that when about $40,000 of the peoples money was expended for the pur- chase of the two old houses and the tri- angular tract fronting on Bank street and converging back to Blinman street. and fanked by Howard and Reed streets, it was for the purpose of widening the streets in that section, making conditions there safer and better for vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Judging from a local newspaper, the object of the purchase was to pave the way for parklet, perhaps in keeping with what is left of Darts corner on the opposite side of Bank street.
