The park commissioners decided to give to the society the plot of ground made by the three drives at the northwest corner of the circle and just nouth of the deer pens. This triangle is made by the circle drive itself, and the two roadways leading from it and connecting with the river drive which enters North Riverside park. This triangle has a base of forty feet and the two sides are sixty feet long. From four sides there will be walks leading to the sun dial. Around the outer edge of the triangle there will be a box hedge and the flower plots in the different divisions of the triangle made by the walks will be filled with old-fashioned flowers, Sweet Williams, pinks and other flowers, so popular many years ago.

This will make an unique plot in the park and will be one of the most beautiful spots in the entire system.
