I and many other kids played there in 1943-1954. It contained many habitats -- a sun-baked northern third with a lone tree and grasshoppers, a swampy SW quarter with frogs and tadpoles, and a wooded central portion (where we kids climbed trees, built a tree house, and dug a "fort"). For those of us who lived just south of the vacant lot, a trail from its SE corner through the woods and past the lone tree to its NW corner provided pedestrian access to Washington Street. People connected to the apartment complex just east of the vacant lot planted small gardens and/or mowed small lawns on that edge of the lot. I shall always remember the "lot" because of the many and varied opportunities it provided for many, many seasons of my formative years.
