At that time it was intended that this land be kept "open" for the enjoyment of surrounding cottage owners. The residential structure on the property was first taken down and the foundation and driveway removed. The land was then re-graded, new top soil added, along with a split rail fence, to tie it to the remaining parts of the original Reserve. Trees were also removed or trimmed which opened up the vista to the Castle and improved the sightlines for both area residents and the many visitors who come to enjoy the view of the unique buildings and landscape created by Carter Brown within Castle Park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60174352a0646e0baa90fae1/1615230755362-27U964R846XR8W833LH9/IMG_0480.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60174352a0646e0baa90fae1/bcdd64a5-f9e9-43ef-9c08-ea1e1a91b6b8/IMG_0894.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60174352a0646e0baa90fae1/1615230917099-1CXDXW31KR5884O8KLKS/IMG_3680.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60174352a0646e0baa90fae1/1615230789857-NXZ4RJURUTXUIO6ZD35M/IMG_0463.jpg Projects - The Amphitheater This unique outdoor Greek amphitheater was constructed on the Castle grounds in 1922.
