  11. In the 19th century, cemeteries functioned also as parks, and the most celebrated designer of parks was Frederick Law Olmsted. #MountHopeCemetery in Rochester NY is an #Olmsted classic. From a photo walk in 2014.

  15. Walk from Husky Stadium to the Arboretum and Volunteer Park and learn about local history in the 3rd installment of my Seattle Olmsted 50 series! This section of the route created by the Mountaineers includes Montlake, Foster Island, Arboretum, Interlaken Park, and Volunteer Park.

    Note: this was delayed for over a month due to a vacation and other events, so I'm hoping to do the last 2 sections in June and July.
