| Additional Information: | 2013- Arlington Park Cemetery was established in 1918 and laid out in a geometric design following the City Beautiful tradition. The cemetery contains five historic resources including the cemetery grounds (224343), the Meyer House (224353), a small metal footbridge (224382), a service building (224383), and a water tank (224384)." The overall design of the cemetery grounds consists of a circular pathway near the center of the property with radiating pathways on each side. All pathways are paved for use by pedestrians as well as motor vehicles. A lagoon is located near the center of the northern end of the property and is connected to a small pool at the southern end of the property by a narrow stream. The cemetery grounds are planted with large trees throughout, but the area just west of the lagoon is more heavily wooded." - "STH 36/W Loomis Rd", WisDOT ID #2240-14-00, Prepared by Gail Klein (2013). |
