New Bath Likely for Next Season at Pettibone Park
Receipts at the public bath rose nearly 50 percent this year, prompting talk of a new bath in Pettibone Park lagoon next season. The plan, drawn by City Engineer Bradish, envisions a larger facility connected to the Mississippi River for fresh water, with estimated costs of 6000 to 7000 dollars. The park board favors proceeding, though officials warn of possible postponement due to other water sewer and park projects.
