Shown in the late 1920s, the third Arlington Hotel towers over the park’s Arlington Lawn. The second Arlington was located on the site of the lawn. After that hotel burned in 1923, the current Arlington was rebuilt across Fountain Street, and the lawn was landscaped. In the distance on the north side of Fountain Street is the newly opened Park Hotel. In the distance on the south side of Fountain Street is the park’s Superintendent’s Residence, which was built in 1891 and torn down in 1958-59. Submitted photo
