User Stories and Comments
The following are comments left about Bigelow's Garden from site visitors such as yourself. They are not spell checked or reviewed for accuracy.
When the garden closed Mr. Bigelow had other amusement ideas. The Consolidated Street Railway, made the first trip over the short line from Washington square to Lake Quinsigamond by electricity just before midnight, September 2, 1891, and the road was open to traffic September 4. Lake Quinsigamond developer Horace H. Bigelow started building White City in 1904 and it opened June 1905.
Some of these posts are dated so I'm not sure if this is monitored. I am trying to find pictures of the (Abijah) Bigelow mansion/house that would have been next to Bigelow Garden. My family (Goulding) built the house and 9th great-grandfather had a house across the street on Front about where People's United is today. Sadly so much of this is lost. It has been very pleasurable looking at all these old photographs and renderings.
