Description
General Description
The symmetrical plaza to the east of Sheridan Building (Building 17) is a direct response to the symmetry in the architecture of the Sheridan Building. Bounded on the east by tree clusters, the semicircular lawn is bisected by a concrete walk and planter. In 2007, LifeStyle equipment (fitness equipment) was added to the plaza for the residents of the Home. The plaza dates from outside the period of significance and is, therefore, recommended as non-contributing.
