The Hinsdalean - Community journalism the way it was meant to be

First park - This photo in Sandy Williams' book, "Images of America - Hinsdale," is of the plans for Burns Field. "Burns Field, designed by Edson Nott and local architect R. Harold Zook, was built with few changes from this 1932 plan, the first Hinsdale park with recreational facilities. Public Works Administration funds and Works Progress Administration labor were used for its completion with local men hired for the work."
