Park in memory of William Wood to be dedicated Dec. 2
Wood Memorial Park dedication Dec. 2
Joe Piantedosi, director of Plants and Facilities,
said the dedication of the William Wood Memorial Park on North Main
Street, Route 28, near Shawsheen Square, will be Wednesday, Dec. 2 at
11 a.m. The town will place a plaque in honor of mill owner William
Wood and his family. The total cost of the project was about $165,000.
The money was given to the town by the Wood family and that transfer
was approved at Town Meeting, Piantedosi said.
"It's now a beautiful public park. We did some
restoring, some new construction on the entry way and planted new
trees," Piantedosi said. "It's a nice tribute to this man who was a
giant industrialist in his day."
