Band Stand ~ February 27th

Slater Memorial Park, Pawtucket, RI

My grandparents lived on the edge of this park. I spent a lot of time playing here with my sister, brother and cousins when we were kids.

"Bandstand... erected during the building campaign of 1917, the bandstand was erected at the opposite end of the pond from the Potter Casino. Of granolithic composition construction, the bandstand is in the form of a circular open temple, 24' in diameter, with ten columns carrying a steel dome and tile roof. The dome's underside is sheathed in quartered oak, and the temple's frieze carries the names of ten famous composers."

Beautiful structure, bet when you are under the dome and talk, the sounds reverberate....
