This project will provide an opportunity to strengthen the historic character and elegance of the existing landscape. The project will create a new entrance to the park and house that will comply with current ADA accessibility standards, improving access to the park. The perimeter sidewalk adjacent to the sections of wall being restored will be reconstructed, as will portions of the brick pathways in the park that lead to the mansion to provide a safe path for all visitors.
