Abolition Row Park

A couple of days ago I did a post showing the Statue of Frederick Douglas in a park here (I would include a link to it, but I prepare posts in advance and have not shared that post yet), today I will share with you some photos of the park, which only opened recently is is a charming little park highlighting some of the history of the area.

Starting with a photo of the open area of the Park showing the Gazebo and the Statue can be seen in the background to the right of the Gazebo

In one corner of the park they have some signs detailing some of the history and important figures of the era

Now this next photo does not do this panel justice as you cant really tell it has water running down

That morning it was clear initially and the air quality was OK, but while I was out that soon changed both with some clouds and feeling a taste in my mouth then I noticed the color of the sky and checked the air quality app and found it has jumped to Unhealthy for sensitive groups, so I called my walk off at that point

But not without getting a shot ofthis house
If you read the post I mentioned earlier showing the Statue of Frederick Douglas you may remember I said when he arrived in New Bedford he stayed in the house of Nathan and Polly Johnson and that house is across from the park and shown in the next photo
