[RP TownTalk] Park on Lafayette and Tuckerman

[Dwight Holmes]

Andre-
I see you're reminding the list that no one has responded to your earlier
question!  Excellent :)  First of all, that's the park known locally as the
Field of Dreams.  There's a history to that which you can probably Google,
or maybe if one of the town historians is so inclined they can recount the
story for us all (it precedes my time here by several years). In any case,
as to your question, I have no actual information, only speculation.
Included in a recent town notice on the Cafritz construction, I believe it
mentioned that preliminary work was going to begin in preparation for the
bridge that's going to be built across the tracks and connect with
Rivertech Ct.  IIRC, part of the property on which the Field of Dreams sits
is actually owned by the University. As part of the deal that made that
bridge possible, the University and the town swapped some land. In any case
the road leading up to the bridge (via a roundabout) is going to have to
cut into the Field of Dreams property somewhat.

The roping off may or may not have something to do with the bridge
construction. As I said, speculation on my part...
