BAND STAND

This structure replaced in 1912 a frame band stand. The present stand is situated at the center of City Park and provides an important visual focus: in winter as dominant feature in the park; in summer as terminus of vista along each of the eight cross- and diagonal sidewalks.

The band stand is octagonal, measures horizontally 24' side center to side center, stands 29' high, and is of concrete, iron & steel construction.
