Eastman Terrace

Item

Description

The Eastman Terrace row houses were modeled on those on the northeast section of Washington Square in New York City. John Winslow participated in the real estate transactions for Eastman Park. In particular he purchased the land between Franklin street to the back of these houses.

Eastman Park extended from South Avenue to Jefferson Street; it is bounded on the south by Franklin Street and on the north by Montgomery Street. The YMCA building at the upper right hand occupied the corner of Montgomery and South Ave. Built in the 1960s it now sits empty. Stitzel Field is inside Eastman Park at the far corner of Montgomery and Jefferson Streets; it is used for football, baseball and softball.
