Under the sponsorship of State Representative Tom Golden, the concert group UP WITH PEOPLE and a coalition of Centralville Neighborhood Groups joined forces with the City of Lowell Parks Department and DPW to complete a Beautification Project at the Robinson School. On August 19-20, 2014, eight areas of the Robinson School grounds were targeted for trash, trees and brush removal. Volunteers from Centralville Neighborhood Action Group, The Friends of McDermott Reservoir, and Friends of Gage Field participated in the cleaning, clearing, painting and planting. The cement steps were repaired by the DPW and all of the railings and safety barriers were re-painted by volunteers. The Parks Department cleared all of the trees and provided all of the equipment used by volunteers. A new garden with donated native Perennial flowers was created at the bottom of the Bridge Street walk-way with more plantings placed all along the tree line. The students of Robinson and McAuliffe Schools, and Centralville citizens now have an attractive and safe walk-way leading up to the school from the Bridge Street Entrance.
