  • 4089Annual Report Manhattan
    LIBRARY ;NEW YORK ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY ~-w%PwE5 +tt l j(6/4 0 of the DEPARTMENT OF PARKS Borough of Manhattan for the year PRESS OF I. SMIGEL, INC. NEW YORK January 5, 1928. HON.JAMES J. WALKER, Mayor, The City of New York. Dear Sir: 1 I respectfully subinit herewith the Annual Report of the ' Department of Parks, Borough of Manhattan, for the year ending December 31, 1927. Yours very respectively, WALTERR. HERRICK, Commissioner of Parks, Borough of Manhattan, REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER The outstanding features of the administration af the Park Department, Borough of Manhattan, for the year 1927, were the increased activities of the Department. Most noteworthy of these was the eniployment of Hermann JlT. Merkel, General Superintendent of the Westchester County Park Con~mission, to make a survey for the rehabilitation of Central Park. The park, due to i~lanyyeai-s of insufficient appropriation and surrounding conditions, had deteriorated to such an extent that great remedial work was necessitated. The employment of Mr. Merkel was decided upon after a very careful survey of those competent to do the work. Mr. Merkel's standing in the country, his noted success as Superin- tendent of the laying out of the Bronx Zoological Park and the Bronx River Parkway, proved that he was amply equipped to do the work. He actually made a foot-by-foot and on-foot survey of the park, and his report, which was submitted to the Commissioner early in the Fall of 1927, received universal favorable con~i~lent,not only from the public press but also from civic organizations interested in the parks of this city, from various firms and individuals engaged in the same line of occupation, as well as a number of private individuals.
