This image is an architectural and landscaping plan for the improvement of Thomas Jefferson Park. The layout is symmetrical and organized, with labeled sections for different uses. At the top of the plan is a large "Lawn" area, and surrounding it is a bordered circular design. Below the lawn are clearly designated areas for two "Play Ground" spaces, one on each side of a central "Mall." The Mall seems to be an elongated path or promenade that runs through the middle, connecting the playgrounds and leading to additional features. The detailed design includes curved pathways and specific areas for landscaping.

The text at the bottom indicates the involvement of multiple professionals in creating this plan: "Thomas Jefferson Park. Plan for Improvement" by Arnold W. Brunner, Architect; William R. Wilcox, Park Commissioner; and Samuel Parsons Jr., Landscape Architect. The East River is noted in the illustration above the Lawn area, suggesting the park’s proximity to the waterfront. Overall, the design reflects intentional organization with recreational and leisure areas balanced by open green spaces.
