Chautauqua enters new phase with permanent growth
Chautauqua N Y plans outline a move from tents to a permanent campus with brick paved highways double tracked trolley system and a new station building housing ticket offices baggage exchange and ladies rest rooms. Landscape work by George Y Skinner and Parsons Co enhances the site as the assembly expands with expanded water gate and pier, new streets Harper and Massey named for notable contributors, and a broader enclosure opening toward Mayville and Westfield.
