Fairmount Square in Holyoke

Fairmount Square in Holyoke

Leslie White made starting in 1885. Fairmount Square ran from Cabot to Hampshire Streets. Notice the curbing at all four corners of the intersection of Cabot and Oak. They are rounded. This also occurs at two corners of Hampshire and Oak. These are the only locations in Holyoke where streets that meet at right angles are with rounded curbing.

Fairmount Square was at the corner of Oak and Hampshire Streets. There once was a large basin in the middle of this square. See at beautiful picture of it at the LINK.
