Description

Delaware Canal Lagoon Park. It was built about 1920 with a concrete, arched bridge connecting the island in the photograph’s center. To the right is Jefferson Avenue and former Grundy Mill (out of view). In 1997-98, the lagoon was restored, a wooden bridge replaced the deteriorating cement bridge, and landscaping was completed. The photographer would have stood on the railroad embankment adjacent to the lagoon in taking this image. A columned gazebo on the end of the island to the left is not visible and may not have been constructed when the photograph was taken.
