About this postcard

Curving walkways lead through Fort Hill Park in Lowell, Massachusetts, past a circular flower bed with a small fountain, benches, and low shrubbery. Mature trees shade the grounds, and a small gazebo or shelter stands at the left. The view shows a designed public park in a textile city, where shaded paths and formal beds gave residents a place to stroll in the early 1900s.
