HISTORIC CENTRAL GROUNDS - THE GARDENS

The gardens of the Pavilions are public areas. Those garden areas adjacent to the Pavilions are not required to be open to the public at all times. They are to be open when not in personal use, and they must be open on certain occasions, e.g., Garden Week. To temporarily close these gardens for personal use by the Pavilion residents, an appropriate sign may be placed upon the gates notifying the public. Where a garden is divided into two portions by an intervening wall, the remote section shall be open to the public at all times. The use of the gardens for social gatherings of University organizations is to be permitted where consistent with the occupancy of the Pavilion as a home by the resident.
