Mr. Low is a great-grandson of Albert Steiger and a great-great- grandson of Chauncey Allen, founders of Grandmothers’ Garden and Chauncey Allen Park. The generosity of the Steiger and Allen families in 1934 endures thanks to volunteers and donors who diligently preserve and protect these beautiful natural spaces for the enjoyment of all.
