.
Twin Peak* and the property lying
r* n! th^rn would be acquired for
park purposes by the city The ldta
is to weave park and residence into
ntere*t:'ng and economic relations,
and also to preserve from the en-
-roaefcments of building the hill bor
d r-d valley running fo Lake Merced.
1 so that the vista from the parks to
' the ocean shall be unbroken. It is
planned to preserve the beautiful car.-
yen or glen to the south cf Twin
Peaks and also to maintain as far
as possible the wooded background
formed by the hi; is looking south
from Golden Ga’e park. This park
area of the Twin Peaks, which in-
cludes the bills which surround the
San Miguel valley ami i- terminate 1
by Lake Merc- 1. is a link ia the chair,
cf parks girdling the city.
To the north cf Twin Peaks lies 3
natural ho.low. Here it is proposed
to create an amphitheater or stadium
of vast proportions. The gentler
slopes of the Twin Peaks will prob-
ably bi> used as villa properties. The
plans for Twin Peaks also inclnde 3
collective center or academy which is
to be arranged for the accommodation
of men in various branches of intel-
lectual pursuits.
Even Telegraph hill is to have its
precipitate sides terraced and is to
to be transformed into a park, accord
in: to the design of Mr. Burnham.
Te carry out all the plans of the archi-
tect wouid be a large task just now
but the citizens of the new San Fran
cisco expect that the broad general
lines will be laid down and then in
the course cf time the rest will be
added.
