History of Highland Park

 


Here we have another of Luella Rice’s long biographical essays, this time about W. A. Roberts, for the Highland Park News Herald. Mr. Roberts was influential in early 1900s city politics and Rice provides all the details. Check out the many issues he had a hand in, including stumping for a “permanent bridge over the Arroyo Seco at the Ostrich Farm” (York Street Bridge).
