Proud Progress
A new footbridge connecting the path on the East Forest Park side of Lake Massasoit was started in early January across the silt barrier along So. Branch Pkwy. It is near where neighbors and Arbor Allies helped plant the trees and saplings donated by the Garden Club last fall. You may want to watch the progress as the city along with Northern Tree Service’s continues a wonderful effort in our ‘neck of the woods’!.
