The park before the park
A postcard of Crivelli Park.
At a time in this place there
was the garden of Villa Crivelli
Granparents: "Back to
the school there was all the private garden of villa Crivelli and nobody could
enter there".
Mrs. Antonia; "But there
was a little space where they let us play".
Mrs. Gabriella: "It was
all private villa".
Other granparents:
"Sorry, but we don't remeber".
Mrs. Antonia: "Yes,
sometimes they took us to a little garden, but only sometimes".
Mrs Annamaria and Gabriella:
"We have never been there!"
Mr. Franco: "In that
private garden, where now there is the hole of the slide near the library,
there was a little lake with some fish, some very big. Then when they dryed out
it, they brought the fish to the quarry of Nerviano".
Also Manzoni Primary school,
built in 1912 and the library rise up where there was the old garden.
