Its length is about two miles. At its southerly extremity on the river side is a large tract of land belonging to the United States; at the extremity of the point is Fort Rodman. Around this point, a distance of about four miles, is a' road not sur- passed by any public drive in this country. It is called East and West French avenues, com- mencing at Cove street and fol- low's the shore thence along the western, southern and east- ern boundaries of the point, un- til it terminates in the street, where it has its beginning. It is eighty feet wide, smooth and level, and in its course com- mands a series of views of sur- passing loveliness and beauty. The cove, the bay, the river, the shores, the islands and ledges, the lighthouses, steamers and sailing craft of every descrip- tion, the city on the one side, its sister town of Fairhaven on the other and the noble bridge between, constitute a series of views which render a ride or a walk over this road most de- lightful and attractive.
