Passing-Through Parks.

Small parks in congested business centers are necessarily “passingthrough” parks. Central Square in Los Angeles is one of them, says the Los Angeles Times. More people each day use It to pass through than the total of those who merely loiter for a whole month. For that reason no landscaping should be done that .will interfere with traffic, utility being the first consideration. This is not necessarily true of a small park in a small town where It is the only one and must serve all purposes.
