This aerial view of Lakewood Park was taken sometime between the opening of Foster Pool in 1953 and the demolition of City Hall (the former home of Robert Rhodes) in 1959. The structures across from the pool on the other side of the parking lot are the city garage and (at the extreme top right corner) City Hall. At the top of this image is the city dump, which sat along the shoreline until being removed in the 1960s. This land would be filled in after the removal of the dump to create more parkland and, later on, the Lakefront Promenade.
