      Is there any new information related to Native Americans living in what is now Fieldston? The Riverdale Nature Preservancy is sponsoring a Garden Tour on Sept. 7th that includes Indian Pond. Would love any information that has come to light in the past five years since the posts above. Thank you!

        I assume that Douglas Ave. was named for James Douglas and that the southern portion would have been on his estate.  But what is the explanation for the northern part of the street and why are they discontinuous?
