Description
General Description
This terraced area to the south of the Scott Building serve as a passive recreation area for the residents of the Home, affording views of the meadow and baseball field to the south. Moveable chairs allow residents the choice of sitting in the sun, or under the shade of one of the large Willow Oaks (Quercus phellos) on the west side of the lawn. The design of the grounds dates outside the period of significance. Therefore, the site is recommended as non-contributing.
