There will soon be a new spot for outdoor dining and picnicking in Bradford Square.
The City of Haverhill has agreed to license a parcel of land between the Sky Dragon restaurant and the Oh Daddy’s building in what is formally called Central Square, Bradford, for use as a small public park over the summer.
Councilor Timothy J. Jordan said this week the idea came from longtime Haverhill resident Eric Sahagian of the Better World Club who approached him about cleaning up the spot. He said additional efforts by the mayoral Chief of Staff Allison Heartquist and Lynda Brown from the city’s Brightside group turned the idea into a reality.
