[Botanic Garden Alternate Plan]

Description: Photograph of a plan for the Fort Worth Botanic Garden. It includes an unrealized layout for the Garden Center and adjoining garden areas, footpaths, and exhibits. Text on the map is blurry and mostly illegible. The plan presumably seems to place the Garden Center along Rock Springs Road, with a rectangular garden built to the north on the current location of the Japanese Garden.
