| Additional Information: | The Madison Park and Pleasure Drive Association was the most influential voluntary organization in Madison's history. From its founding in 1892, until it dissolved in 1938, the MPPDA transformed Madison from a city with one 3 1/2 acre public park, to one with a wealth of parks, playgrounds, athletic fields, beaches, open space, and "pleasure" (scenic) drives. The MPPDA was instrumental in securing almost all of the parks created in Madison during the organization's 44 years. |
