Book excerpt: Excerpt from Souvenir of the Public Parks of Hartford, Conn., 1895-1905 However, is now apparent in the beautiful trees and shrubs which are the glory of Bushnell Park. Of these there are 265 species, many of them most perfect specimens. In East Bushnell Park, in the triangle near Trumbull Street Bridge is the scion of the Charter Oak, transplanted in 1867 when twenty (20) years old. Other distinguished trees in Bushnell Park are the Bliss. \vard and Parker Elms. In the center of the East side is the Aquatic Garden, or Pond, its banks fringed with water plants and its surface covered with pond and lotus lilies in their season. W'inter transforms the rock fountain in its center into an iceberg. Nearby is Bartlett's statue of Dr. Horace \vells. The discoverer of anaesthesia. In \v est Bushnell Park is the Coming Fountain, presented to the city by Mr. John J. Coming of Hartford and round about it floral displays are made. Here is also a bronze statue of General Putnam by J. Q. A. \vard. The lawns of Bushnell Park are unsurpassed. It was named February I4, 1876, in honor of its originator. Its location in the center of the City, with its Memorial and Capitol in full view, make it invaluable to Hartford's Park System and as an asset of the City it is.

Book excerpt: American city streets at the turn of the century were chaotic places where pedestrians, peddlers, vehicles, and playing children competed noisily for space. How did this scene disappear in so many urban areas, replaced by a modern streetscape dominated by traffic? Domesticating the Street locates this important change in the Progressive Era, when growing alarm about the impact of the urban environment inspired attempts to make public space conform to the values of the middle-class home. Taking the city of Hartford, Connecticut as a case study, Peter C. Baldwin examines reformers' efforts to fight the litter, prostitution, child labor, and peddling that made streets so anti-thetical to Progressive ideas of decorum. Though these reformers failed, finally, to purify the streets, business-oriented individuals and groups developed a different strategy, dividing public space into a complex system of thoroughfares, pleasure drives, side streets, public markets, landscaped parks, ball fields, and playgrounds. Vice and crime weren't eliminated, but they were displaced to marginal streets and off-street alternatives. This successful reform movement culminated in the adoption of land-use zoning regulations in the 1920s. Hartford's reform of its public space predated the flood of automobile traffic so often blamed for transforming the streets. In order to understand fully the current condition of American public spaces, Baldwin suggests, we need to look at the complex moral and commercial reform tradition that made it possible -- not simply at the effects of technology.
