1913: "The Cadwalader Park Tunnel'


This was a very familiar place for me back in the 1960's when I was deeply involved in metal detecting on the sprawling and beautiful grounds of Cadwalader Park. This photo is from the era when offset photos were very primitive. It took a bit of tweaking with Photoshop and this is the best I could do to bring out the details, even though they are very obscure...(Look closely; that's a horse drawn buggy going toward the tunnel.

Wife's grandfather worked there, taking care of the grounds. Think he used to bring home tennis balls. Ron
