Henry F. Halloran was recognized for his utilization of rounded street corners in his Garden City subdivisions. He believed that this design feature enhanced traffic flow and safety, aligning with his urban planning philosophy. Initially situated at the corner of Caswell Crescent and Admiralty Avenue, the island with the Circle of Palms underwent modifications, likely due to changes in the road layout. The council’s decision to streamline road areas and adopt cost-effective maintenance practices reflects a pragmatic approach to landscaping and infrastructure development.
