•Historic lamps in Moore Park and Rosedale
by
•The vandalizing of the historic street lamps (right) on Rose Park Drive in Moore Park has once again raised the question of the City’s commitment to these original adornments of the neighborhood. They were installed by the long since defunct firm of Reid and Brown. Curiously, the same light standards on Rosedale’s Chestnut Park Drive (left) have been lovingly restored. In the recent acts of vandalism, most of the eight standards on Rose Park had their globes broken. But beyond this, the Moore Park lamps suffer general decline and neglect. On Chestnut Park the lamps are greatly loved and they show it. Note the lamps have not one but two new footings — one of concrete and one of steel. It isn’t clear why this difference exists. It may be that the restoration work on the Rosedale street lamps was done by public subscription.
