86-R & 88 Atkins Mayo Road (Eder Property)
A PROPERTY INTERSECTING WETLANDS, WOODLANDS, HISTORY AND ART
At 86R and 88 Atkins Mayo Road abuts a rich wetland and red maple swamp along the Old Colony Nature Pathway. These special parcels were once home to John Eder, who tragically died in a fire on the property a few years ago. John loved nature and his home in the woods. His art reflects the outdoors and the spirit of Provincetown’s natural beauty.
The parcels would help protect the sensitive wetlands used by many migratory birds and other animals year round. This parcel lies at the end of Atkins Mayo Road, a road which transforms into a lovely nature trail leading to Provincetown’s natural crown jewel: The Old Colony Nature Trail.
The vision for this parcel includes an artistic memorial, benches, and additional passive recreation elements for visitors to enjoy.
