Description
Image
of
eight
unidentified
boys
and
girls
standing
on
one
of the
many
pedestrian
bridges
in
Milham
Park
with
some
of the
children
fishing
and
others
just
watching
.
Opened
in
1911
,
Milham
Park
is
located
on the
northeast
corner
of
Milham
Avenue
and
Lovers
Lane
.
First
utilized
as
only
a
park
,
it
received
a
bathing
place
,
boat
lagoon
and
bath
house
in the
1920's
.
During
the
Great
Depression
, the
park
benefited
from
upgrades
by the
W.P.A
.
(Works
Progress
Administration)
and the
C.C.C
.
(Civilian
Conservation
Corps)
which
included
bridges
,
picnic
pavilions
and
even
a
small
zoo
. This
bridge
stands
near
the
western
edge
of the
park
and as of
2006
remains
little
changed
with the
exception
of the
removal
of the
small
pagoda
in the
background
.
Virtually
all
of the
work
done
to the
park
in the
early
days
including
the
bath
house
,
picnic
pavilions
, and
zoo
have
since
been
demolished
.
