Park Here
Forgotten
"Could you tell the where
Cadillac Park is in Godorich?"
a visitor from Cleveland, Ohio,
asked Miss Bea Bradford, at
tendant at the Tourist Inform-
ation Booth.
"1 don't know of any such
park 10 Goderlch, maybe you
are 'thinking of Detroit," sug-
gested Miss Bradford.
"No, I mean right here in
Goderich," said the Cleveland
man. Miss Bradford again as-
sured him she knew of no such
park. More than 90 per cent
of the residents of Goderich,
would not know where Cadil-
lac Park is located in Goderich.
The question was asked in
jest by the visitor who already
blew where it is. He then
.proceeded to point to it from
where he stood at Tourist In-
for•mation Booth.
Imprinted on the cement
curbing beside the o`parb" are
the . words "Cadillac' dark."
This very small V-shaped' park
with only a little circular flow-
er bed in the centre is located
at the south-east corner of ,
Victoria street and Elgin
avenue, at the front and a bit
to the side of what is knoivrn
as the old Halliday House, pre-
sently up for. sale. Its total
area would be about 60 square
feet.
