  • Sixty Morning Walks Andy Fitch
    [Reading Copy Only: facsimile available at http://english.utah.edu/eclipse] Sixty Morning Walks Andy Fitch editions eclipse / 2008 Week One Tuesday 2.15 Before I pulled back the curtain I knew it was raining but then a sparrow called and I knew I’d been wrong. Bright clouds blew across the courtyard shaft. My New Balance had to stay stuffed with paper. My jeans had dried hung in the shower and didn’t even itch. Two women opened Dana Discovery Center. The one driving a golf cart in circles stopped. Silent attraction seemed to flow between us. The other smoked and rinsed rubber floormats. Wind made it cold for khaki ecologist suits. A cross-eyed girl shouted Morning! I couldn’t tell if there was someone behind me. On the way past I said Hello, twice, but she stared off gulping air. The pond at 110th (The Harlem Meer) is so reflective sometimes. Christo’s Gates had been up since Saturday. Last night I finally got to see them (in dismal circumstances: heavy bag, broken umbrella, damp socks and gloves). In all the Conservatory Gardens only one cluster of snowdrops had bloomed. Slender green shoots looked strong. Patchy light came through the trellis. As a jogger emitting techno beats curved beside the baseball fields I thought about vicarious emotional momentum. She had glossy dark hair. So many people use expensive hair products now. Somebody with leashes wrapped around one wrist sat with his face in a Daily News. People must always bug him about what it’s like to be a dog walker.

  • Wisconsin's Famous and Historic Trees R. Bruce Allison
    Nature/Wisconsin History Allison “Each of us from birth to death is intimately connected with trees. On Every Root their beauty and longevity we hang our memories and beliefs, trusting an Anchor trees to be symbols of our achievements and the things we hold dear.” —from the Preface Wisconsin’s Famous and Historic Trees Ever A llison y Root an Anchor In Every Root an Anchor, writer and arborist R. Bruce Allison celebrates Wisconsin’s most significant, unusual, and historic trees. More than one hundred fascinating tales introduce us to trees in every corner of the state, some remarkable for their size or age, others for their intriguing histories. From magnificent elms to beloved pines, from hanging trees to surveyors’ witness trees, from Frank Lloyd Wright’s oaks to Ben Logan’s maple, these trees are woven into our social and emotional history, contributing indelibly to our sense of place. They are anchors for time-honored family and community customs, manifestations of our ideals, and reminders of our lives’ most significant events. For this updated edition, Allison revisits the trees’ histories and tells us which of these unique landmarks are still standing. He sets forth an environmental message as well, reminding us to recognize our undeniable connectedness to trees and to manage our tree resources wisely. As early Wisconsin conservationist Increase Lapham said, tree histories increase our love of home and improve our hearts. They deserve to be told and remembered. WHS R.

  • James Madison Park
    James Madison Park PARK HISTORY Part of James Madison Park occupies the place where the original plans for the city of Madison, made by James Duane Doty in 1836, provided for one end of a canal between Lakes Mendota and Monona. This canal was never dug, but a square of land on Lake Mendota bounded by Franklin, Hancock, and Gorham Streets remained.1 In the 1870’s, the sixty-five foot long, one hundred fifty passenger steam yacht Mendota made daily trips around Lake Mendota from this location.2 A little to the west, at the intersection of North Butler and North Hamilton Street, the Conklin & Sons ice house stored ice that was harvested from Lake Mendota.3 Though the city was willed $75,000 for a park on this site in 1916, that was not enough to buy the ice house property. (Apparently, the will had been drawn up after the old icehouse had burned down, and before a new one was built.)4 Eventually, the advance of mechanical refrigeration made icehouses obsolete. In 1939, the city purchased the Conklin property in order to develop it as a park providing lake access near the center of the city.5 “Conklin Park” was used regularly by Madison swimmers,6 but the park was considered too small to justify building a shelter.7 The 1950’s saw the purchase of additional land. In 1963, the park was given the name “James Madison Park,” since the city of Madison had no public facilities specifically named after the fourth president.8 The city also made plans to purchase the remaining lakeshore between Butler Street and Lincoln School for the park.9 Federal aid made it possible to purchase much of the property in the 600 block of East Gorham St.

  • Environmental Justice of Public Park Amenities and Accessibility in Madison, WI
    Running Head: Environmental Justice Environmental Justice of Public Park Amenities and Accessibility in Madison, WI Rebecca Bailey, Alexis Clausen, Eunji Kang, Caroline Shea University of Wisconsin ­ Madison Environmental Justice 1 Environmental Justice of Public Park Amenities and Accessibility in Madison, WI Abstract This case study examines the relationship between demographics, park accessibility, and the quality of park amenities in Madison, Wisconsin. We use both quantitative and qualitative data seeking to answer the research question: is there a correlation between the socioeconomic status and racial demographics of a neighborhood and its inhabitants’ access to quality parks in the city of Madison. Unlike the classic geographic environmental justice issues that generally concern the imposition of harms, this case study evaluates the distribution of benefits. To answer this research question, it is vital to develop a series of Geographic Information System (GIS) data layers and subsequent analyses to reflect accurate racial and class distributions in the city. Using this GIS model, we chose seven community parks to study that are located in areas of various demographics to best represent Madison’s diversity. These parks include: Reindahl Park, Olbrich Park, North East Park, James Madison Park, Brittingham Park, Olin Park, and Elver Park. Surveying the parks to gather observational data consists of using a checklist to assess the amenities and their quality, as well as photographing the park and its amenities. Lastly, a Madison Park Department employee gives insight into the planning and maintenance of the city parks. The primary data from parks is quantified to conduct a statistical analysis and overlapped with GIS demographic data layers to answer the research question.
