Description:Letter from C. E. Godshalk to Sterling Morton stating the plans are about done for the Arbordale plantings. The plans will be reviewed by Professor Keith (Head of the Landscape Department, University of Illinois) and Professor Longenecker (Head of the Landscape Department, University of Wisconsin). Mr. Ward sent out drawings for the planned changes to the terrace. Godshalk is doubtful of the plan; Mrs. Zurcher will come out to the Arboretum to see it when she returns from Colorado. Work on Route 53 should begin in April. Godshalk has started staking out the shrub plantings around Arbor Lake. He is meeting with Mr. Kress to see how much planting the Arboretum will be allowed to do along the toll road.
