excellence with a 2003 silver NOMMA award winning ornamental iron railings. The commission
was created in the WPA art deco style to compliment the existing WPA stone and masonry
work at the park. Artist, Eileen Ruth Webb worked closely with the design staff - Janette
Moon (landscape architect) and Zena Trinidad (architectural designer) to come up with the
architecturally appropriate solution creating a period statement that closely matched the
original park style. The look is that of ''Hand Made Art from the Modern Machine''®
changing the definition and course of hand craft and technology. This commission is the
second in Art Deco style to be recognized with a national award from NOMMA - the National
Ornamental and Miscellaneous Metals Association for her art as functional ornamental iron
gates and decorative iron railings since 2000.
