John and Ellen Moot Papers

or

This collection contains materials related to Ellen and John Moot's work on preserving recreation areas around Memorial Drive in Cambridge, including People for the Riverbend Park Trust. There are several oversized materials, some of which -- like the Cambridge Civic Association Billboards -- are fragile. Jacek von Henneberg, author of the Memorial Drive Drawings, is a Polish artist and architect, who lived in Cambridge. The proposed underpass on Memorial Drive by Harvard Square was never created. The "Save Memorial Drive" poster has a reproduction of Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of Grande Jatte."
